I love creating art that blends fairytales & faith. God gave me this gift to share His joy, painting His world through my imagination.

I most enjoy creating acrylic paintings that transport you into dreamlike worlds filled with whimsy & imagination. My favorite pieces, though, are those that spark a deep sense of joy and wonder rooted in the Christian faith. Through my art, I hope to reflect the beauty & splendor of that faith, showing that it is vibrant, inspiring, & full of life. I believe art is a powerful way to express my beliefs, uplift others, & that with God, there are no limits to the joy and wonder we can experience.
Where do you find inspiration?I find my inspiration in the quiet beauty of everyday life in nature. To me, the earth is God’s canvas—our shared source of inspiration and palette. It’s up to us to bring that color into our lives & with a little faith, we can step into the fairytale we’ve always dreamed of, because with God anything is possible. Sometimes, you just have to take that leap of faith.
What would you do with $25,000?I left my job just five days before learning I was pregnant, due to health issues & a calling to pursue art that honors my faith. With $25,000, I’d create a simple home art studio to paint, store artworks, and film content to grow my business so that I could help provide for my family and stay home to care of our baby. I’d also build a website & purchase supplies to join local art markets—helping me establish my art career in the community while sharing my work and my faith with others.
