Art is the means by which I explore who I am, my feelings, and create the beauty I want to see in the world.

Evocative and dramatic portraits; mythical landscapes.
Where do you find inspiration?In my beautiful Pacific Northwest home, alive and currently blooming. In the years and joys of motherhood. In the human body and its fluidity and beautiful/perfect imperfection. Music, most of all.
What would you do with $25,000?I am a mother of three kids working two jobs, striving to make money as an artist. $25,000 would first of all help me buy a new-to-me van. Mine won’t last much longer. My kids (9, 12, and 14) want to do things like gymnastics, martial arts and music lessons, and I’ve never been able to afford any of that. It would be a blessing to provide those opportunities for them. Last, I would put money into my art business and start investing.
