Crown of Green

 
Me                                           AI

Two portraits of innocence: one painted in the immediacy of feeling, the other refined by digital patience. The human work vibrates with presence — a celebration of texture, light, and imperfection. The AI version preserves the form but loses the friction, turning motion into memory. Together, they trace the line between expression and understanding — where art is not only what’s seen, but what resists being smoothed away.

Second Hand Light

Second Hand Light is a visual dialogue between human creation and machine interpretation — a series of paired works that trace the fragile space between presence and imitation. Each piece begins with a hand-drawn or painted study: rough, searching, alive with the rhythm of mark-making. These human originals are then reimagined through AI, which translates gesture into pattern, texture into algorithm, emotion into understanding. The project examines how technology mirrors and mutates the language of touch. It’s not a contest of skill, but a meditation on translation — how light, form, and feeling shift when filtered through two ways of seeing. In the human works, we sense the warmth of imperfection, the intimacy of process. In the AI versions, we encounter reflection without friction — art distilled into calm precision. Together, these pairs create a conversation about authorship, empathy, and the body’s presence in image-making. Second Hand Light asks what remains — and what is los...

All Three Paintings Accepted at Articipate!

   I'm happy to share that all three of my submitted paintings were accepted into the Student Art Show at Articipate in Berkley, Michigan. This show invites artists to share work created while learning something new — and for me, that meant working with egg tempera for the first time. Tempera requires a slow, layered approach, and these portraits reflect that shift in pace and mindset. Each piece was part of my process of experimentation — figuring out not only the medium, but also how to listen more closely to the quiet presence of a figure as it develops. 🗓️ Exhibition Details: Student Art Show * 📍 Articipate Studio, 3833 Twelve Mile Rd, Berkley, MI 🖼 Exhibition Dates: November 2 – December 2, 2025 🎉 Opening Reception: Sunday, November 2, 3–5 PM You can view more about the show here: articipate.us/exhibitions Thanks to the team at Articipate for the opportunity to be part of a show that celebrates exploration, growth, and creative risk.

Two Paintings Accepted for Northville Art House's Small Works Show

I'm pleased to share that two of my egg tempera portraits — The Necklace of Knowing and Performer of the Unspoken — have been accepted into the Small Works exhibition at Northville Art House . This annual show highlights artwork 16 inches and under, and I'm honored to be showing alongside other artists working across media and scale. Both of these pieces explore quiet presence and symbolic identity in small format. Working at 8x10 inches, I aimed to keep the emotional focus close, with room for texture and layered color. Exhibition Details: Small Works: All-Media Exhibition November 14 – December 18, 2025 Northville Art House, Northville, MI Opening Reception: November 14, 5–8 PM (Awards at 6 PM)   The Works: The Necklace of Knowing A poised figure painted in pale tones, wearing a symbolic necklace — an expression of intuition and quiet strength. Performer of the Unspoken A portrait caught in transition, with stylized features and a theatrical presence. This piece pla...
