"I'm working on bigger pieces! That's something I've struggled with and have declared is just not for me. But what I'm actually struggling with is control and letting go, so now I'm pushing myself to lean into it."
"There are always these everyday scenes that are so cool to me, and with this particular piece, I'm understanding that scale only enhances that feeling and makes it epic. It goes from a small snapshot to a bigger moment."
"When I'm painting girls, I lean toward my sentimental side heavy. When I'm painting women, that's when I'm trying to tap into my more assertive side. So those subjects are represented in a way that embodies a coolness or confidence that's born out of self-actualization."
"It's important because my subjects are so familiar, and these small moments go by so quickly, that painting helps to slow people down and appreciate the beauty in them."
