I seek refuge in the natural world around me. I am in a constant search for sanctuary, something that encompasses me, a haven. Subsistence is achieved by making marks on life, lines that intertwine and entangle. When the line is broken, the bustle and the struggle begin. I find serenity in the byways and motions of the journey. As I watch the movement of nature, I am filled with calmness, white and luminescent. Migration from one home to another has become a way of life.

My medium serves as a way of recording my paths and my perception of nature on paper, giving my viewer a means of experiencing the natural world as I do. The lines, intimate spaces, and open areas allow for the viewer to create a journey of his or her own. Watercolor washes across the paper in a way that creates an atmosphere for my lines to weave in and out of. Ink, pens, and prisma color have become my main source for the line work as they seem to take on a life of their own when in my hand. I leave a trail of lines daily as my voyage continues with unknown result. Divergence is the only way to keep my head above water, changing up the familiar and moving into uncertain territory.
