Visualize your emotions with art
I create paintings that reflect your story, connection, and experience.
The things we shouldn’t forget
As life moves forward, we sometimes forget to slow down and reconnect with ourselves — with the things that ground us and remind us who we are. Our loved ones, our pets, our spirit animals, and the places that hold meaning can quietly fade into the background of everyday life.
Art can bring those connections back into focus. When you truly connect with a piece, it becomes more than something you look at — it becomes something you feel. A sense of comfort. A sense of security. A quiet reminder of what matters, and of who you are at your core.
My Artistic Process
Connection doesn’t happen by accident — it’s created with intention, care, and understanding. Every piece I make begins with listening, observing, and feeling into what matters most to you. From there, I translate that connection into visual form, creating art that feels personal, meaningful, and true to you.
This is how it comes to life:
1. Connection
We start with conversation. You share your story, your emotions, and what you feel drawn to — whether it’s a pet, a place, or a symbol that holds meaning for you. This is where understanding begins.
2. Interpretation (Painting)
I take what you share and translate it into visual language — color, form, movement, and mood. This is where emotion becomes something you can see and feel.
3. Creation
Your connection becomes a finished piece of art — a painting that reflects your story, your identity, and your experience, and becomes something you can live with and return to.
