Commissioned for the Starbucks Willis Tower in Chicago, these paintings draw inspiration from my time studying at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and walking the city. I was especially drawn to spaces where water, people, and plant life converge, influenced by the floating gardens and the reintroduction of native plants along Chicago’s waterways. This project was a true honor and an opportunity to collaborate with the creative team at Starbucks Art Program, joining an inspiring community of artists.
