Food can be a daily adventure, a momentary comfort, wholesome and nourishing, indulgent and problematic, a connection to human kind and history, a vehicle for peace and a provocateur to love. Food is a necessity that I want to celebrate with you.
An experienced and trained visual artist I came to professional kitchens in order to support my drive to make paintings. The regionally famous Boat Street Kitchen and Cafe in Seattle became my culinary training grounds. I have found in food a vehicle for personal connection to others and a medium deep in cultural history and cutting edge necessity.
