On View: ECOTONES

Where the land meets the sea.

Inspired by my deep love for Maine, this collection is centered around the connection between the land and the sea that is such an integral part of what makes Maine so special.

My eight piece collection Ecotones is on view now at the Harpswell Collective through the end of the year.

Featured Projects

TERMINUS · OLYMPIC NATIONAL PARK

A Melting Glacier, preserved in Moss.

Olympic National Park's Terminus project aimed to immortalize the melting glaciers of the Olympic Mountains through art. I was given the glacier "Akela" - an extinct rock glacier near Gray Wolf Ridge that formed somewhere between 3,000 and 5,000 years ago.

As one of 40 selected artists, I was honored to be a part of this project, even more so when my piece was featured on the Spring 2024 cover of National Parks Magazine.

Commercial Projects

My commercial work lives in restaurants, offices, retailers and multifamily buildings, including pieces for Pure Sweets & Co., Mimeo and Thirty Hair, and an amaranthus chandelier in a lobby in Washington, D.C. Every one designed and built by hand in my Philadelphia studio.

Residential Projects

I've made pieces for homes in more than fifteen states, from Philadelphia to Seattle and Miami to Portland. No two are the same. Each one designed for the person and the space it's going to live in.
