I sometimes photograph the early hours when the beach is still waking, the lifeguards and workers preparing for a day most people never witness.

These images became the foundation for my mixed-media abstractions, where light, motion, and water dissolve into soft drift and ghosted marks. This work explores the tension between safety and danger, the seen and the unseen, and the emotional residue left behind by places we return to again and again.

My practice is rooted in process: inspiration arriving in quiet moments, exploration through layering and experimentation, discovery emerging through texture and gesture.

I rarely know exactly where a piece will land; I follow curiosity, emotion, atmosphere, and instinct until something true surfaces.
