“I would rather die of passion than of boredom.”

-Vincent van Gogh

Feminine person smiling, holding a paintbrush and wooden palette outdoors. She wears a gray ribbed sun bleached polo and has dirty blonde hair with blue eyes.

Art made with passion and heart.

As an artist, I explore themes of vulnerability and passion through the use of color and light. I like to capture fleeting moments of love and warmth so we can stay and enjoy them a little longer.

I paint with thin, expressive strokes so the previous layers show through and build up. I’ll start with a layer of red and as I paint, allow some of it to show through, giving parts of the painting a glowing effect. I want the people in my paintings to feel vibrant, passionate, and full of life.
