Fine-Art–Led Surface Design
Guided by presence, harmony, and proportion.
Art Designed for Living
I am a multidisciplinary artist and surface pattern designer translating original paintings into refined, emotionally resonant surfaces for home, fashion, and lifestyle products. My practice is rooted in painting and was deeply reawakened while caring for my father during the final stage of his life, when painting became a grounding way for me to cope with my own mental health and restore a sense of calm and balance. That experience continues to shape my design approach, which emphasizes presence,
harmony, and thoughtful restraint. Influenced by classical ideas of beauty, the expressive modernism of Morris Lapidus, and the light and movement of South Florida design, I create surface patterns intended to enhance product form rather than compete with it. Each design is developed with commercial application in mind, offering scalable, adaptable artwork that integrates seamlessly into cohesive product collections.

These surfaces are composed to create visual stillness withing products and interiors, offering a sense of calm that feels natural rather than imposed.
Design intent: Surfaces that allow the eye to rest.

Movement, Light, and Calm

is developed as an atmospheric backdrop rather than a focal graphic, allowing it to translate fluidly across textiles, wallpaper, tabletop, and accessories while remaining versatile in scale and color.
