About me:
Today, I describe myself as a fusionner—an artist who blends digital figure painting, photography, and AI-generated environments into a single, evolving practice.
I draw portraits and figures on my iPad, often starting with live models, then enhance them with my own photographs—capturing the ever-shifting skies and landscapes of New England—to intensify color and atmosphere.
These hybrid images are then embedded into richly imagined, AI-generated spaces: sunlit interiors, shadowy greenhouses, or forgotten ruins that suggest subtle narratives. Many of these become short reels or looping films—quiet meditations that blur the boundary between the real and the imagined.
Recently, I’ve been working on a new short film that assembles a series of these reels into a longer piece for an upcoming exhibition. It’s a continuation of my exploration into how the human figure—digitally rendered, photographically enhanced, and contextually re-situated—can take on new meaning in spaces dreamt up by machines.
My previous solo shows—at the Amherst Town Hall, the Hitchcock Center for the Environment, and the Anchor House of Artists—focused on large-format photographs of the Pioneer Valley and the Holyoke Range, printed via HD dye sublimation on recycled aluminum for durability and radiant color.
Whether through lens, brush, or algorithm, my aim remains the same: to create work that captures fleeting beauty and gives it a new place to live.

My work explores the intersection of human presence and machine-generated space. Each short video begins with a life-drawn nude, painted on an iPad using Procreate. I situate these figures within AI-generated interiors—sun-drenched ateliers, crumbling stairwells, imagined greenhouses—then gently animate elements like drifting leaves or a cat stirring in the background. Sometimes, the figure itself emerges in real time, stroke by stroke. These loops invite viewers to reconsider the digital nude not as disposable content, but as a moment of presence. AI here is not the subject but the frame—an ambient collaborator reimagining how we view gesture, intimacy, and context.
