My work begins with noticing.

I'm drawn to the small moments that are easy to overlook — an animal moving through a landscape, rain drifting across an open field, a fleeting encounter in nature, or an ordinary object that suddenly catches my attention. These moments often make me pause, look a little closer, and wonder why they stayed with me.

I create hand-carved linocut prints as a way of slowing those observations down and holding onto them. Through drawing, carving, and hand-printing, I translate what I see into simplified shapes, bold contrasts, texture, and carved marks. The physical process is intentionally slow and tactile, allowing me to become more attentive to the subject and to the feeling behind the image.

At the heart of my work is a belief that beauty doesn't always announce itself. Sometimes it is found in stillness, in an unexpected encounter, in a familiar place, or in an ordinary moment that we simply take the time to notice.

I hope my prints create that same opportunity for the viewer — a small pause in the middle of everyday life. Perhaps a piece brings back a memory, sparks a sense of wonder, reminds someone of a place they love, or simply gives them a quiet moment to look and breathe.

When someone chooses to live with one of my prints, I hope it becomes more than something beautiful on a wall. I hope that, years from now, they can still walk past it and feel something — a memory, a connection, a moment of calm, or a reminder to notice the beauty around them.

Art for the moments worth noticing.
