I love creating art because it lets me say what words can’t & turn even the smallest, ordinary moments into something that feels meaningful.

My favorite art to create is inspired by the ocean. Growing up in Dutch Harbor/Unalaska, Alaska, I was surrounded by water, and that connection has stayed with me ever since. I’m drawn to underwater themes, the depth, the movement, the mystery, and the emotion it holds.
Where do you find inspiration?Inspiration isn’t just one place for me, it’s everywhere I look, always shaping and influencing the art I create.
What would you do with $25,000?Work on building an art studio instead of doing art at my kitchen table. ♥️
