Divided Air, 2026

Divided Air is a series of oil paintings depicting figures in states of pause — waiting, absorbed, turned away. Each figure exists within a shared space yet remains held in a private interior world, separated by an invisible distance that is neither absence nor connection, but something suspended between.


Threshold, oil on wood panel, 20’’ by 16’’

A small distance can feel large. This piece is about that space.
Two Figures, Shoreline, oil on wood panel, 18’’ by 24’’

A quiet moment, held at a distance.
Inward, oil on wood panel, 20’’ by 16’’

A quiet turning inward—between presence and distance.
Quiet Wait, oil on wood panel, 24’’ by 18’’

A quiet pause between moments, where presence and distance exist at the same time. 
Held Attention, oil on wood panel, 20'' by 16''

A figure in quiet tension, where the act of looking feels deliberate yet restrained.
