Other Services:

I have been approached sometimes for my ideation…for a space, an event, for change. This will include listening to people's thoughts and ideas, and desires, and design thinking sessions.
I have designed collaborative art projects for faith communities for use in their prayer spaces, or as an impermanent /seasonal exhibit.

Philosophy / Approach:

My basic philosophy is about beauty, and how beauty opens us up to an encounter with God. Before diving into a project, I research whatever subject I'm painting…and I find that I am inspired by language : scripture, story, poetry and Eucharistic Prayers. I am also on the lookout for ways to be hospitable with our spaces, and creating invitation with beautiful work.
