2025 | Oil on Panel 25.5cm x 10cm
Spannocchia is a secluded place near Florence, Italy, where I found myself in 2019 and 2025 going through transitional periods in my life. In the quiet of the woods, I let go of the burdens I’d been carrying for a very long time. Unloading what I had accumulated, the new emptiness came as a warm welcome, as a chance to heal the hurts I had tucked away for so long, no longer afraid to come home to myself.
To want less
be more
full on a slice,
content
without a whole.
Sauna Weather | 2025 | Egg tempera on panel 10cmx13cm (View from somewhere in Connecticut)
I’m on a decluttering spree, unburdening like trees that have shed their leaves for the season, patiently waiting for the sound of a free-flowing stream.
I’m on a decluttering spree, holding onto only the driest logs to burn down all I‘ve ever known.
I’m on a decluttering spree, running out of a sauna deep in the woods, making snow angels on the forest floor, feeling every prickle of snow against my skin. Soft, naked and oh so happy.

Baby | 2025 | Oil on Panel 4”x4”
I read that looking at pictures of cute dogs for just five minutes can positively impact your mood and well-being (Source: Psychology Today - take it or leave it). If you’re feeling dreary this week, I hope this brings you a little joy. Baby is one of the cutest dogs I’ve seen, though only through pictures. She’s moving down from NJ to FL in a few weeks, along with two fluffy cats called Bella and Tyson. I hope she gets to run around the beach and enjoy every minute of it!
