Losing myself in creating on canvas, fabric, wool, paints, graphite are what excites me & makes me curious about diving within myself.

As an artist, I draw inspiration from the contrasting qualities of wool & copper, combining them to celebrate nature’s elements. Wool represents warmth and softness, while copper embodies strength & resilience. My work spans functional items like hats & garments, as well as timeless wall art & jewelry. Through these creations, I evoke harmony & balance, inviting viewers to explore the interplay between softness & strength. I aim to connect audiences with the richness of nature, & art's power.
Where do you find inspiration?Nature inspires me with its diverse textures and surprising bursts of vibrant colors. I also find inspiration in conversations with friends, exploring their projects and life experiences. This rich weaving of natural wonders and heartfelt exchanges fuels my creativity.
What would you do with $25,000?If I won $25,000, I'd give it all to my mom. Her unwavering support, endless wisdom, and countless sacrifices shaped who I am today. She's been my anchor through every challenge and my biggest cheerleader through every triumph. No amount could truly repay her love, but this would be my way of saying thank you for being the most incredible mother and role model I could ask for.
