Her work has been showcased in solo and group exhibitions, including two solo shows at Standard Space Gallery in Sharon, CT, and two solo shows in Greenwich, CT. She continues to exhibit her work in group exhibitions, where her practice evolves as she expands her paintings into archival giclée prints.

My work focuses on capturing light and its interplay with nature. I explore fleeting, intimate moments in the natural world—whether it’s the soft glow of light through leaves or the shifting hues of a sunset. My subjects include trees, flowers, and organic forms, examined through the lens of light and color. I aim to evoke an emotional response, conveying the delicate, transient gestures of nature that are often unnoticed in everyday life. By highlighting these moments, I invite the viewer to pause and reflect on the impermanence of time.
