Beauty and intrigue surround us in our daily lives - yet they often go unnoticed. Art speaks to these overlooked moments and elicits feelings that we cannot describe with words. The recognizable thread of realism draws us in. When followed, we are led to explore the fluid feelings of color and shape. These feelings resonate through my art.

Born and raised in the PNW; majestic forests, mountains, and water are the foundation of my palette and compositions. A splash of vivid color, blurring of edges, and mixing of different mediums push realism into unknown territory. I connect the known with the abstract to invite the viewer to explore their emotions and find what resonates.

As an emerging artist, I balance my new art business with teaching art to elementary kids as well as face painting at the zoo and events. This has been a refreshing addition to my fine art focus. It reminds me that art should be fun and enjoyed by all, and that we should pause and enjoy the process of creating.
