About Abby

I am a self-taught artist living in Prince George's County, Maryland.

Color and water have always been central elements in my life and identity. 'Color is life' is real, and water is a calming element for this fire sign. My watercolor practice involves inquiries and experiments into the textures of naturally occurring pigments, the way water naturally flows and recedes, and pushes the limit on the scale of a water-based medium.

Expressive movement and color, as well as the emotions captured through these tools used by others, have been a refuge and site for inspiration for me my whole life.

My work tries to capture these concepts using watercolor and varied supplemental media to interact with it.

Equally as central are efforts at community resilience. My work focuses on creating moments of pause, of reflection, and of wonder as I explore human interactions with water, and as much as possible uses natural and eco-friendly materials.
