Solo Exhibition, In Place Series | Grafly Gallery – Ulrich Museum of Art

Ulrich Museum of Art | Wichita State University / 1845 Fairmount; Wichita, KS 67260-0046

As part of the Ulrich Museum of Art’s In Place series, which highlights Wichita-based artists and the experiences, perspectives, and creative practices that shape our community, I’ll be presenting a solo exhibition in the Grafly Gallery. My exhibition will build from my own experience as a queer artist while expanding into larger conversations around queer identity, community, masculinity, vulnerability, belonging, and visibility. Through painting, mixed media, and installation, I’m creating a body of work that feels deeply personal while also making space for stories and experiences beyond my own.

Graphic Design

Design with the same pulse as the artwork.

My graphic design work brings the same instincts as my studio practice: bold color, clear hierarchy, layered storytelling, and a strong sense of audience. I build visual systems for artists, small businesses, community events, exhibitions, and organizations that need design to feel expressive without losing structure.

From brand identity and print pieces to event graphics, digital campaigns, and WordPress sites, I create design that helps people understand the work, feel the energy behind it, and know exactly where to go next.
