My work is shaped by the places around me, imagination, and personal reflections. I was born and raised in Southeast Alaska, where the beauty of the natural world first awakened my love for art.  Surrounded by the mountains, forests, and the ever-changing waters of the Lynn Canal in Alaska's Inside Passage, I developed a deep appreciation for the colors, textures, and patterns found in creation.

My journey as an artist began with drawing and traditional painting, providing a strong foundation in composition, color, and design.  Over time, my creative journey led me to acrylic fluid art, where I discovered a medium that allows both intention and spontaneity to work together.

Today I live in Northeastern Washington, where the changing seasons continue to inspire my work.  I am especially drawn to the richness of color found woven throughout creation - from quiet earth tones to vibrant skies and flowing water.  Each painting explores movement, light and the beauty I find in the world around me.
