About
Through the fusion of pyrography and watercolor, I celebrate the spirit of the desert animals and landscapes of the American Southwest. Each piece begins with the wood itself, where the natural grain becomes a unique foundation, reflecting the organic beauty and individuality of the land. No two canvases are ever the same, mirroring the diversity and character of the desert itself.
Inspired by the camouflage patterns of wildlife, I burn intricate designs into the wood. These patterns honor the animals’ ability to blend into their rugged environments—an essential harmony between survival and beauty. My work seeks to capture that delicate balance, where life and landscape coexist in quiet resilience.
Watercolor enhances the warmth and texture of the woodburned images, echoing the golden sands, twilight skies, and sunlit mesas of the Southwest. This blending of fire and color brings the animals to life, inviting viewers to connect with the presence and the landscapes they inhabit.
I aim to honor the region’s beauty and spirit, encouraging viewers to see the world through the lens of nature’s patterns and resilience. My art is a tribute to the desert's power, harmony, and the creatures that call it home. I see it as an ever-present reminder of the connection between land, life, and art.
