Gouache

Still Life (2026)
Gouache on paper
18x12

Available

Gouache study. Working from observation in a group setting, using loose marks and strong color choices to describe materials - the translucency of glass, the dense opacity of pears, the pattern and drape of cloth. Experimented with oil pastel accents. 

In Your Room (2025)
Gouache on paper
18x12

Personal collection

The view from the bed in my partner's old house - a moment of unexpected calm I wanted to preserve. Morning light through the window, familiar objects on the dresser, and the particular quality of peace in someone else's space becoming yours.

Pagoda (2024)
Gouache and soft pastel on paper
24x18

Available

The Patterson Park pagoda is one of my most-painted subjects - a place that rewards each visit with something new to see. Gouache and pastel study of architectural detail during cherry blossom season, when pink blooms soften all that ornate geometry.

Boys Performing at a Festival (2025)
Gouache and soft pastel on paper
24x18

Private collection

Inspired by Latino community festivals where kids perform traditional dances. A moment where cultural preservation meets childhood awkwardness and becomes something more honest than perfect technique could ever be.
