I'm an artist and instructor dedicated to drawing in the presence, a philosophy based approach emphasizing relational encounter with your subject. Through my teachings and creative practice, I explore how authentic observation and mindful mark making deepen artistic growth. I create original paintings and lead a weekly drawing class rooted in presence and connection. My work is informed by Ubuntu philosophy and a commitment to drawing as a form of being, not just representing.
