My primary source of inspiration has always been the natural world. I’m particularly fascinated by the unique soulfulness of animals that invites us to better understand the qualities we share with them, as well as what sets us apart.

In my current work, I combine a narrative approach with an emphasis on realism and lighting, working from observation and my own photographs when possible, to create pieces that reflect each animal’s essence, as I perceive it.
