Artist’s Statement:
I am a contemporary acrylic artist inspired by the beauty, emotion, and stillness found in the world around me. My work moves between impressionistic landscapes, florals, and intuitive abstract pieces. I love exploring color, texture, and movement, allowing each painting to unfold somewhere between intention and instinct.
This year has been a turning point in my life and career. After 15 years as a school psychologist, I stepped away from my career to pursue art full-time while being a stay-at-home mom. My family and my art are my focus, passion, and purpose. Reconnecting with the artist I had set aside years ago has been transformative and a reminder that it is never too late to follow a dream.
I’m inspired by experiences, destinations, and emotions. Since reconnecting with art, the way I view the world has shifted. A walk outdoors becomes a source of endless ideas. I often photograph what I see and return to it at my easel. Sometimes I sit with a clear plan; other times I create something entirely abstract. My process blends freedom and intention—a balance I’m learning to trust.
Though sharing my work publicly is both exciting and daunting, I remain committed. At 39, I still tell my children, with a full heart, that I want to be an artist when I grow up.
