My art is a combination of multiple mediums including: wood, metal, clothes, materials found in nature and more.
I paint, draw, sculpt, make prints, and paint on fabric.
Below displays some of the various art projects that I have done over the years
I commission a lot of portraits, large scale pieces, and custom clothing designs as well as murals.
When you scroll through….you will see my acrylic portraits, oils paintings, sculpture pieces, drawings, and more :)

Place of Many Stories
This piece is my first experiment with places and landscapes. I wanted to paint a memory of a place with a friend that is very dear to my heart. This photograph is one of my favorites as I love culture and experiencing the natural, real life aspects of it and taking it all in! I remember walking through the cobble stones streets being in awe of the stories in each persons face and on every wall. Europe is such a historic place full of endless beauty and art. This picture encompasses it all and brings me back to that very moment!
For a long time I only painted portraits for others and for myself, so I wanted to paint something that is personal to me but that others could really find value, connection and appreciation in. After finishing this piece, I plan to do more and capture all the various places I was blessed to travel to.

Music has a tempo a beat that keeps the song going,
Time does the same thing, it ticks without us knowing,
Taking us on a journey to a place not yet discovered,
And gives us a chance to truly listen and find the beauty discreetly covered.
But time is a strange thing it’s beauty and its sad,
Captivating to look back on and see what lives people had,
But sad as it goes too quick and it’s out of our control,
It’s hard to take a second and be completely still without falling into the hole
It’s light for little while and each second is unique,
But then it’s dark only leaving behind shiny streaks
As time flashes by only having a moment to leave a small token
A little tiny memory before it goes on for a new decade to open!!
Don't Let the Beauty Die
Medium: Dropped Canvas, Acrylic Paint, Ribbon, Gessoed lace and old cloths, found trash
Size: 5ft by 4f
This piece was inspired by a trip to Belize where I studied leadership and sustainability. For part of the trip we spent four days on a 6 mile long island that is 100% sustainably run studying the ecosystem and the effects of climate change and human impact.
I was devastated with how much trash I saw while snorkeling and each morning lining the shore. We were four hours by boat off the coast of Belize City so we were far out into the Caribbean and we would fill bags upon bags of plastic, styrofoam, shoes, clothes, water bottles, etc. On average we would fill about 15 large garbage bags a day, it was so sad to see.
So when I came back to school I wanted to start using trash to make art as a statement. To demonstrate the beauty of our planet and the underwater life will soon be damaged and destroyed by the trash that we so carelessly are creating and dumping as if it’s not our problem anymore.
