I’m always in search of new ways to express myself, constantly exploring and evolving my style. My work is all about embracing the messiness of life, letting colors guide me, and making each brushstroke feel fresh and spontaneous. It’s not about perfection—it’s about feeling. Whether it’s the way light and shadow play off each other or how I use color to bring warmth and energy into a piece, I’m always exploring.

Starting my art business was a dream come true. At 36, I’m living a life I’ve always wanted, full of paint and creativity. I spent two years in art school and now, as a full-time artist, I’m finally listening to that little voice I had as a kid—the one that loved drawing made-up animals—and the one I had as a teenager, painting big, emotional expressionist pieces.

A few fun facts about me: I’m left-handed, I’ve never owned a car, and I’m a trained pastry chef. I’ve always wanted both a cat and a dog, though, so there’s that on the wish list!

Ultimately, my art is about celebrating freedom and playfulness. Every painting is an adventure—sometimes vulnerable, sometimes vibrant, but always full of life. I hope my work brings a little joy, brightness, and warmth to whoever sees it. Thanks for following along!
