Professional Summary: My work is an attempt to take a world that can be so negative and find the light, bright beauty of our fragile existence. My work focuses on our great joys--love, parenthood, ambition and community-- and our great sorrows--personal sacrifice, politics, social injustice-- and works to accurately depict a big, messy life containing both.
