I completed my first masterpiece on the underside of my parent's new dining table with permanent markers when I was 3. My very own Sistine Chapel. I knew I'd be an artist then, and my parents knew I'd be trouble. I'm an artist, designer, world explorer, ponderer, adventurous foodie, kitchen dancer, lucky mom and wife, and passionate lover of life.

Previously a book cover designer in New York and an advertising art director in Missouri, I made the switch to full-time artist in 2013. I've shown my work in numerous galleries across the U.S., and I was selected as a featured artist in the top-rated resort, The Grand Colorado on Peak 8 in Breckenridge, where several large metal prints of my work are on permanent display in the common areas and Infinity Spa.

My style is best described as 'lyrical abstraction': vibrant and expressive, dynamic and ethereal. I work with palette knives and acrylic mediums on canvas to form texture, and then up to 50 layers of dry-brushed oil paint to create depth and detail.

My work has been likened to oceans, cosmic explosions, and nebulas, but is ultimately inspired by the desire to enchant viewers with a sense of magic and hope, and find the richest beauty of the universe while playing in the contrast between dark and light.

Please connect! If you are interested in commissioning a painting, purchasing a print of one of my pieces in a size that is not listed, or if you have any questions about my work or process, I'd love to hear from you!
