I’ve been making art, both hangable and wearable, since I can remember. Over the years I’ve painted everything from ceilings to guitar picks to my now favorite boots. I used to tease my kids that if they sat still long enough, they’d be covered in paint too…truth!

​

I fell in love with expressive painting back in 2014 when I took an online painting course. Once I put the brush to canvas, I couldn’t stop! Painting is like a portal to endless possibilities. I feel alive and free when I’m slinging paint in my studio!  People are my favorite subjects. I feel deeply connected to humanity when I’m pursuing the essence of another human being in a piece; it's often a spiritual experience for me.

​

People often refer to my style as abstract expressionism or impressionistic and often packs a punch. I like to use bold colors and spontaneous brushwork which gives my paintings a free and palpable energy. I draw inspiration for my paintings from the people, places, music, majesty and madness in life that moves me.

​

My strong belief in the healing and wellness benefits of the arts led me to pursue educational training in Expressive Arts Therapy as a certified Coach in 2019. It makes my heart happy to help others experience freedom, connection, wellness and joy through the arts.
