Get to know me! Ask me anything! I grew up in Wisconsin, raised by the most wonderful people…who worked hard, loved even harder and raised me to do something that truly makes me happy. Art for me has always been a passion. It’s pulled at the inner core of who I am. It’s brought me out of dark places, filled the void of boredom, woken me early in the morning excited to put color onto canvas, and kept me up all night in a storm of ideas. I’m not going to lie when I say I’ve been disabled with doubt for a lot of my artistic career. There have been low points and towels thrown in…but then I have an idea and I’m pulled right back, stronger and more intensely than ever. I may not believe in calling myself an artist, but I believe in those heart strings that pull me back…to keep practicing over and over and hoping that at any moment I will feel the spark, the light, the talent. It’s a process…but through that process I hope to create art that conveys a sense of love, togetherness, interconnectedness, nature, beauty, whimsy, quirkyness and humility. I want the viewer to feel the humanness of each brushstroke, pen line, marker fade and color combination. I’m never going to stop learning and I hope I never stop doubting…because at the end of the day, that’s what fuels my fire. Thank you all for the support and can’t wait to share my journey with you!
