Show title - "Dark Wander"
Artist statement - My paintings memorialize ephemeral, nostalgic-like scenery that accentuates peculiar light qualities and explores psychedelic subtleties embedded within the surrounding landscapes. Fleeting moments that feel suspended in time, glimmers that quietly urge to be searched.
