welcome

I create vibrant, expressive oil paintings that capture the beauty of everyday life—whether it’s the delicate curve of a flower petal or the whimsical personality of a bird. Each piece is a reflection of the world around me, painted with the same love and care that I bring to my teaching. I offer workshops both locally and internationally, helping others discover their own creative voice through loose, intuitive brushwork. My art isn’t just about the final product—it’s about the process, the journey, and the stories that unfold along the way. And through it all, I strive to connect with people, sharing a bit of joy, beauty, and reflection in every painting I create.


Original oil paintings

Painting in luscious buttery oil paint makes my heart sing! My original oil paintings are available here in my online shop as well as in galleries and at prestigious outdoor art shows.
