Art by Preference

I was born into a family full of artists and art making came naturally to me.  My mother pushed me to become an art educator, so I sought formal training in Art and Art Education. I have over 20 years of effective teaching experience in public schools, university, and public and private settings combined.

 

While I strongly credit my mother, DNA, and learning institutions for my ability and skills, my most powerful lessons came from helping my students heal and later healing myself through art making.

I combine formal training with deep spiritual listening, symbolism, color, and energy to create pieces that don’t simply decorate — they speak.

Whether you’re here to commission your own piece, learn more about art, explore my gallery, or begin a creative journey of your own...You’re in the right place.
