With over 25 years of experience as both an artist and educator, I am passionate about creating art and helping others discover their own creative voice. I work in watercolor, gouache, and acrylic, and my artistic journey began with a decade dedicated to painting butterflies. Today, my work explores both abstract and realistic styles. As a teaching artist, my goal is to make every class a welcoming, positive, and inspiring experience for artists of all skill levels. I believe art can be a powerful form of healing and connection.
My Favorite Artist: Sol LeWitt — an influential American artist known for his conceptual and minimalist work. I admire his thoughtful approach to ideas, simplicity, and creativity.
My Favorite Way to Relax: Beach playtime with my dogs, Captain Sailor and Mr. Penguin Gumballs.
My Favorite Quote: “What is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?” — Mary Oliver, The Summer Day
