Death Valley, 2022
Analog collage, 8.5 x 11 in.

Collage gives me the power to tell stories and create change. I’m able to respond to our changing world by using techniques that reinterpret or exaggerate what’s happening in the real world into artworks that can feel both illusionary and deeply personal.

Mi Amor 02, 2019
Analog collage, 8.5 x 11 in.
Forces of Change, 2022
Analog collage, 8.5 x 11 in.

My handmade collages bridge traditional analog techniques with digital technology. The collages are made by hand using paper, an x-acto knife, tape, and glue before being scanned into a digital file for commercial, editorial to fine art. My fine art practice is focussed on climate change, visualizing scientific data into beautiful artworks that engage meaningful conversation and sustainable action around our changing world.
