This used to be a big tree

2009, Acrylic and architectural geotype wood burning on plywood, Approx. 36"w x 24"h

Born in Kaneohe, Hawaii, I grew up playing in the ocean, hiking to forest waterfalls with my mom, or at the theater building and painting set pieces with my dad. I started building mini sculptures out of theater trash when I was three, and in high school I began to study art at Punahou School. I am currently working toward my BFA in studio art with an emphasis on painting at TCU. I am also the President and co-founder of ArtOrg, TCU’s first studio art organization.
