Abstract works inspired by place 🎨
Based between Vancouver, B.C. + Switzerland
Works available through @onceatreefurniture + @vanartrental

I’ve always loved seeing my work at @onceatreefurn I’ve always loved seeing my work at @onceatreefurniture, and The Branch is another side of that relationship.⁠
⁠
There are quite a few of my works on paper here, alongside some of the larger paintings, so you can see a wider range of the work together and spend some time with the pieces in person.⁠
⁠
And if you’ve been meaning to visit, there’s even more reason to make the trip right now - Once a Tree is continuing to offer pieces from their recent Warehouse Sale at The Branch, including floor models and other sale pieces.⁠
⁠
Visits are by appointment at 1410 William St, Vancouver. I’d love for you to have a look!⁠

Still getting to know this medium, letting the paint do its thing and seeing where it takes me.⁠

A few more pieces, now in their forever homes.⁠ ⁠ A few more pieces, now in their forever homes.⁠

One of the reasons I love what I do is getting to see where a piece ends up. The space around it can completely shift how it feels, almost giving the work a different perspective each time.⁠
⁠
If you have one of my pieces in your home, send me a picture. I’d love to see where it landed.⁠

Maybe there’s something to be said for making art Maybe there’s something to be said for making art the way you did as a kid, no rules or brushes,  just your hands and a little curiosity.⁠
⁠
A good reminder to keep playing.⁠

We all bring something different to a piece, and I We all bring something different to a piece, and I love the idea that the same work can mean something completely different from one person to the next.⁠
⁠
I hope my pieces speak to you in a way that’s entirely your own, perhaps even differently than they speak to someone else.⁠

Same, Same But Different, up close. ⁠ ⁠ There’s a Same, Same But Different, up close. ⁠
⁠
There’s a lot happening in these works that you don’t necessarily notice from a distance. Marks overlap, and colours shift. Some of the earlier layers quietly come back through.⁠
⁠
I like that the closer you look, the less “same” it starts to feel.⁠

One of those happy accidents that turned into a bo One of those happy accidents that turned into a body of work.⁠
⁠
After a day of painting, I started noticing what was happening in the water buckets beside me, from leftover colour marks to the little compositions that had happened completely by chance.⁠
⁠
So I started photographing them.⁠
⁠
The Waterbuckets series is a collection of those unexpected studio moments. Proof that sometimes the most interesting things happen when you aren’t trying to make anything at all.⁠

I’ve always been drawn to the things that are easy I’ve always been drawn to the things that are easy to pass by.⁠
⁠
The colour of a piece of fruit, the pattern in tree bark, or the the way light lands on something ordinary.⁠
⁠
I don’t always know what I’ll do with these things. Sometimes they simply stay in the back of my mind until they find their way into a painting.⁠
