A Bit About Me

I'm an oil painter and an intuitive artist, raised in Chicago and now based in Florida. My art is a sacred practice--- a space where I can slow down, feel deeply, and connect with presence. I work primarily in large-scale oil painting, using color, texture, and movement to express the inner landscapes of emotion, embodiment, and feminine power.

Creating is a ritual for me. Every canvas is an offering, often infused with intention, oils, music, and prayer. My process is slow, intentional, and deeply feeling---guided by my spirituality, my relationship with my body, and a desire to make beauty from the truth and depths of my soul shadows.

I make art to remember myself. To soothe the parts of myself that ache, that yearn, that reach. To honor the softness and strength that coexist within all of us. And I hope my work invites others to do the same-- to breathe, to feel, to come home to themselves.

My first gallery show -

CONCENTRIC & VISCERAL ELEMENTS: WIND, WATER, EARTH

I am a woman with a tender heart. I am soft, I am feminine. I feel things deeply and fully. The works you see throughout this show intend to highlight the depth and profoundness of my emotions. These paintings are an ultimate expression of my most recent healing process, in which I have spent reinventing myself. It is through the colors, the shapes, the lines, and the interpretations of imagery that you can venture with me along this path of pure self love. Depicted here are the catalytic forces that have given way for natural, energetic momentum to carry me back, forward, and back again; inside myself and out.
Everything is aligned.
Everything happens for a reason.
There are no such things as coincidences; everything is a lesson if you look deeply enough. 
Pain and suffering can be beautiful once you become and Alchemist; transmutation is key.
Welcome to my journey.
