Hello there...did you perhaps buy a print of my artwork or pick up my business card?

I would love to hear from you, please send me an email and tell me about your experience!

Fractals, kaleidoscopic mandalas, and symmetry are common themes in my artwork. I enjoy experimenting with patterns and finding ways different aspects of nature tie into together, and hint at a more cosmic connection. As alluded to in my work on this page, "We are all made of starstuff"...

.....

I use my own photography, paintings, drawings, found objects and fractals to make mixed media photo-collages. I use Ultrafractal software to create my fractals, where manipulating math formulas can create beautiful recursive patterns commonly found in nature.

I currently do not have an online store, but plans are made to have one up soon. If my art speaks to you let me know, I welcome correspondence via phone or email. I also occasionally do commission pieces, but hope that any image we create together might be offered as art to others, so that its message can speak to them.

....

By day I am an entomologist at the North Carolina Museum of Life & Science. Many of my works are inspired by science and my day to day experiences with insects and the questions that curious humans ask...

Know Wonder!
