In September/October 2024 I got to spend three weeks in beautiful, intense, inspiring Florence, Italy.
An artist residency is a kind of art scholarship or stipend. The goal is to work and create in a different environment, without disractions of the regular day-to-day.
This residency was made possible by Singulart, an online gallery in which I have been active since 2020, and SACI (Studio Arts College International) in Florence. Throughout my time in Italy, I built upon my practice of letting my surroundings – visual, physical, emotional – influence my paintings.
The resulting artworks: soft in color, light in feel, and striving upwards like my glance in the streets of the city or inside the many palazzi with their high ceilings and frescoes.
