Collection: American Baroque

American Baroque brings the techniques and visual language of the Old Masters into dialogue with the American West — a subject that shares the same dramatic, romantic, and unforgiving qualities that defined Baroque art. Inspired by the likes of Caravaggio and Rembrandt, the series began as a technical exercise: reinterpret some of the greatest paintings ever made through subjects that felt personal, using the discipline of recreation to become a stronger painter. But as the first works took shape, something deeper emerged. These paintings sit at the intersection of two heritages — Italian and Native American — where the tenebrism and emotional intensity of the Old Masters meets the history and figures of the American West. Each brushstroke serves two purposes: an effort toward mastery informed by the great painters who came before, and a way of honoring heritage and ancestors. This is American Baroque.
