“Creativity takes courage”
Henri Matisse
Hi there!
I am a fine art painter and surface pattern designer based in Georgia. Through my use of vibrant colors and expressive brushwork, I aim to capture the beauty of God's creation — landscapes, beaches, and florals that bring joy, peace, and connection into your home.
Art has always been an integral part of my life. Growing up in a small rural town in North Carolina and living with hearing impairment since birth, I realized early on that creativity was my most effective means of communication. While attending speech therapy at a young age, I began to express my stories through drawing and color, a passion lovingly nurtured by my supportive parents.
For me, painting serves as a form of meditation on the wonders of life. The interplay of color, God, family, and the beauty of nature inspires every piece I create. I work with oil, acrylic, gouache, and watercolor, allowing color, texture, and intuition to guide my brushstrokes.
Capturing beautiful places through travel and photography often serves as the starting point for my artistic process. However, I let my heart — along with the mood of the moment — dictate what unfolds on the canvas. There is profound joy in achieving harmony among colors; it makes me feel vibrantly alive.
Through each painting, I aspire to convey something authentic and beautiful about this world that God created, sharing His love and goodness with others. It is a privilege to create, and an even greater joy to share my work with you. Thank you for being a part of my journey.
