Painting depicts a large white window in a white window frame. The window is set into a white wall, with pink tile stretching from the height of the windowsill down. The bottom half of the window is obscured by a white curtain, through which the silouhette of the window frame is still visible. Throught the window we see a dark grey-blue sky and a bit of greenery. To the right of the window we see a postcard of a woman in a red bikini and a blue surgical mask. Above the postcard is a caldendar, with a rendering of a Richard Diebenkorn painting. A rectangle of light falls across the middle of the painting, as if projected from a doorway behind the viewer. — Bathroom with Diebenkorn Calendar 2020

Painting is of a glass filled with a brown liquid, which glows golden in the reflected light. It sits atop a glass-topped table, next to a haphazard stack of papers and books. A notebook is splayed open to a page containing a small graphite drawing of a table and a sketch of a woman with straight long hair. A paperback book, identified as Jean Rhys's — Good Morning, Midnight 2020

Painted image of a cluttered wooden tabletop. Clockwise from the top, we see: a pothos plant, an alarm clock atop a stack of papers, a book splayed open to images of paintings by Joan Brown and David Park, a cigarette pack, a drawing of a cartoon computer, a paint marker and a pencil, two postal stickers, a drawing of a tent-like structure, a coffee mug and a coffee pot. — Study Break 2020

A grid of six images, connected by an orange wire. From right to left, top to bottom: a pink bather figure, a eucalyptus leaf, scraps of paper, a small landscape, a purple flower, and a paper scrap beside an orange slice. — Six San Franciscos 2021

Painting of a car dashboard, strewn with books, flowers and maps. Outside the window are two folding chairs around a campfire. Two figures are caught in the rearview mirror. — Interior Van, Night 2021
