Humble beginnings—some of my earliest memories are of tearing pages from my mom’s books to sketch on. With just a bic pen and a vivid imagination, drawing became my way to explore the world. That early curiosity laid the foundation for a lifelong calling.

​

Mostly self-taught, my journey has been fueled by exploration. Art feels meant to be shared, which is why teaching has always been close to my heart. For over eight years, I taught art to at-risk youth and children's classes before shifting to adult workshops in 2019. I love turning my own studies and experiments into lessons that encourage freedom and joy in watercolor.

​

As a watercolor pour artist, my work embraces spontaneity and abstraction, often incorporating mixed media to deepen the expression. Inspired by the natural world, there’s a strong pull to wander God’s creation—whether painting en plein air or capturing photographs for studio reference. Stylized colors blend together to create pieces that reflect this deep connection to nature.

​

In Calimesa, California, where the foothills of the San Gorgonio Pass stretch wide, life is shared with my husband and our faithful Doberman, Cowboy. The shifting light here quietly guides the flow of both my art and everyday moments.

​

I’m thankful to be a Daniel Smith Brand Ambassador and a Signature Member of both the Louisiana Watercolor Society and Women in Watercolor.
