Artist’s Statement

I have always had a deep love of the unique environment of South Louisiana. Interest and beauty can often be found in places that get overlooked in daily routines.

As a lifelong resident of South Louisiana, I find endless inspiration in the quiet beauty of the region’s natural landscapes—its winding roads, live oaks, and filtered light. My work begins with my photography; from there, I interpret these images into watercolor to create a sense of place and mood.

My style is impressionistic but leans toward realism. By adding a layer of personal interpretation, I aim to reflect not only what a place looks like but also my own impressions.

Through this process, I hope to preserve and share the beauty of Louisiana’s back roads and landscapes, inviting viewers to slow down and reconnect with the places that surround them and to see the familiar with a fresh perspective.
