Wild at Heart. Western by Nature. Painted with Purpose.
Rooted in the spirit of the American West, my work explores the freedom, strength, and connection found in its horses, landscapes, traditions, and people. Through blending, layered glazing, dramatic light, and rich color, I create cinematic oil paintings that capture more than what is seen—I seek to preserve the feeling, movement, and stories that make the West enduring. Each piece is created with intention, honoring a way of life that is deeply rooted, fiercely alive, and always moving forward.
Painted with Purpose.
Each piece begins with observation and story, often from a lived experience and then layered through photography and writing before taking form on canvas. This process allows the work to hold not only visual impact, but emotional depth, capturing moments that feel lived, remembered, and connected to place. The finished painting is a reflection of that experience—a way to preserve the moments, people, and places that shape us, and to carry their stories forward through art.

From July 29-August 26th, at The Ruby Hotel & Bar in Round Rock, TX you’ll find nine original paintings celebrating western art- from powerful horses and resilient cowgirls to nostalgic dancehalls and landscapes inspired by the beauty of the Texas Hill Country.
If you love western heritage, ranch life, country music, horses, or Texas landscapes, I’d love for you to stop by. Whether you’re enjoying a craft cocktail, dinner by the creek, or simply exploring Round Rock, I hope these paintings bring a little piece of the West to your visit.
A heartfelt thank you to The Ruby Hotel & Bar for the opportunity to share my work in such a beautiful space, and to the Creative Arts Society for creating opportunities that connect local artists with our community and local businesses. Your support means so much! I’d also like to give a shout out the Art Direct Gallery and Frame Shop for framing my pieces, you always do such amazing work!
