“This painting is a sleep scape depicting a girl in the moment just before she must wake. Some elements are literal like the twisted sheets, the dog curled at the girl’s side, while others like the horses and moths are part of the dream. The phone with the alarm going off signifies that the child must awaken and is a symbol of technology interrupting the sleep schedule of a tween. The composition is meant to read as a spiral or a whirlpool, which mimics sleep patterns.”

“Like many artists, I have dabbled in every medium, but the one I love most is watercolor. On each painting, my goal is to anticipate and produce exhilarating results that embrace the unexpected. For me, to be an artist is a privilege and a precious gift that I don’t want to waste. My goal is to create 1,000 paintings before I die.”
