I am an artist living in N.E. Portland. My work reflects a curiosity for weathered objects and environments. I am inspired by the process of finding and transforming tins and other weathered materials into two-dimensional art. 

Throughout my creative practice I have collected worn, rusted materials to celebrate the beauty in decay. I hand-cut old tin and other metal treasures, then hammer small nails into wood to assemble metal collage.

I construct hints of memory in each piece offering a new narrative for the materials I find. Working intuitively, I compose materials to sanctify the relationship we have with our natural and man-made surroundings.
