Hey Yall! I’m so excited you’ve found your way to my little place of happiness. I have always been creative, from a young age I dreamed of doing something
in the arts. I enjoyed learning about the greats, creating using different mediums, and studying art throughout my schooling. At one point I even wanted to design clothing for a living, but life took me on a different career path.
Enter the infamous pandemic, a forced moment of pause. In the standstill of life and seeking ways to cope with the new normal, my love for art blossomed
again and I found the process of intuitive painting.
My paintings start with this process inspired by something in my life; a memory from long ago, a meaningful scripture, or a moment from motherhood. Vibrant color schemes, loose florals, and abstract paintings come together in organic layers with expressive details that give a loose representation of their reality. When taking a closer look, there are details of conveyed emotions, mark making, scripture, and incising; creating beauty from the chaos and imperfections of life.
As a wife and mom of 3 under the age of 6, I love that I can work from a home studio in Arlington, Texas, and have them with me. Inspiring the next generation to get messy and creative brings me joy! With three little helpers and a few furry friends, daily life is chaotic, beautiful, and a bit messy!
