Thank you for coming to the Art Underground Fall Quarterly Show. This show was very personal to me – my first show, in my favorite part of the city, at my brother Phil’s amazing home. I never dreamt I would end up living in St. Louis. But it’s been a city I’ve fallen in love with since moving here three years ago. These watercolors are an exploration and documentation of my new home town. Lafayette Square in particular is my favorite part of the city and I’ve been coming here to paint from day one. I love that I’ve found a home in a city full of history yet brimming with possibility. There’s a great deal more of exploring and painting to be done here.

I dedicated this show to Philip and Becca Woods,

“Thank you for your big love and steady faith!”
