Vibrant Respite 

 Vibrant Respite brings together a selection of paintings and collages to create a beautiful sense of lively pause in the shared civic spaces of San Ramon City Hall.

My work draws energy from the tension between seeming opposites—effort and ease, emotion and intellect, surrender and control. All my paintings are born as collage first, and it is through the making that I discover meaning. Every piece I create begins intuitively, with color as the emotional starting point. I collage only with papers I paint myself, and my final compositions balance playful chords of color.

I passionately believe art and the act of creating deepen our connection to what is most human in ourselves and each other. I live and work in San Carlos, Calif. with my family.
