I believe all humans are born creators, for we are made in the image of the ultimate Creator. And it is through our creations that we uncover our life’s purpose.

My journey began when I was a child with a simple desire to draw and paint. The path from there eventually led me to realizing my own purpose. God made me an artist with the undeniable desire to paint subjects that are beautiful and joyful… my small offering in a world that often magnifies the darker things.

Upon this realization, my skills quickly grew, and painting became a part of my everyday life. It wasn’t long before a new desire stirred within me: to nurture and teach others who feel the same pull toward creating.

Whether I’m in the studio or in the classroom, my work is a practice in honoring my purpose as an artist: to celebrate beauty and to be a witness to all things bright and beautiful.
