01The philosophy

All of us experience moments that leave us feeling broken. What matters is how we rise, gather the pieces, and begin again. Even broken pieces can come together in a beautiful new way.

08Meet your teacher

I spent years working in real estate and sales before I let myself create art.

I studied art education at NYU, then detoured through the corporate world of sales and real estate. When I came back to the studio, I brought the rusted metal, weathered wood and salvaged scraps of that world with me.

I've founded an artist-run gallery in Austin, started a society for encaustic painters, shown nationally and held residencies at VCCA and Brush Creek. But one of the things I care about is helping people keep their art practice alive.

I've had studios in San Francisco, San Jose, Oakland, Houston, Austin and Fort Worth, and now in Brooklyn.

Made from what remains.

Torn paper, ledger pages, burlap and the marks of daily life, layered into something whole.

I brought a box of old letters I could never throw away. Two hours later they were a piece I've hung by my front door.
