Extravagant Journey was a project I started in the early days of covid. I had 8 writers create an exquisite corpse story based on a series of drawings I’d completed the previous year. It is available online here.
Dreaming Through the Apocalypse is an art zine that is the final component of my Dream House series. This zine is available here. Support for this project came from the Regional Arts & Culture Committee. In the spring of 2023 I digitally changed the color of my original paintings and published a second edition of the zine.
Extravagant Creatures is a solo exhibit I staged at Paragon Gallery in Portland, Oregon from December 2022-January 2023. Over the course of the past three years, between world turmoil and personal tragedies, Extravagant Creatures has slowly taken shape. My desire has been to create objects and art that hold a promise of distraction with beauty and humor but as a viewer sits with these pieces the dread and anxiety of the world around us creeps back in. At this current time, there is no place for distraction and as an artist, I feel the need to keep pushing my viewers out of spaces of comfort with gentle nudges. The works span both ceramics and works on paper, creatures fanciful and absurd abound in both mediums.

Dream Girls are a series of ceramic sculptures based on a dream I had in late 2020. In the dream, I was loading a firing shelf with little busts of women with ornate hair and clothing and words scrawled across their chest. I went into the studio the next day and began this series. You can shop my available ceramic work through my shop.
Dream House is a series of paintings and ceramics inspired by dreams had by myself and others over the course of the covid-19 pandemic. The pieces were shown together at the Lolopass Gallery in Portland, OR during May 2022. The project was funded in part by RACC.

Don’t Worry About That One, She’s Only a Metaphor
The Last Dream
This Sinking Feeling
In the lead up to the Dream House show at Lolopass, I installed a ceramic box with a slot. Next to the box I left little worksheets where visitors could write down their dream with the intention that these dreams might eventually become additional art pieces or perhaps a zine.
My Potion Bottle series started with some strange vessels that I decided to start adding corks to. I like thinking they are for potions or spellwork.

My Walking Mountains zine is inspired by a body of ceramic work I created in 2021 of the same name (you can view that project here). In this zine I wanted to tell more of the story of these women. The original paintings were created entirely with gouache. The finished zine is digitally printed and each page is cut and assembled by me. You can purchase copies of the zine here.
