History

I grew up in a home where creativity was nurtured and encouraged. As a child, I would carry around a sketchbook, drawing inspiration from my father’s magazines. I created in any way I possibly could, favouring creativity over entertainment. For as long as I can remember I wanted to be a professional artist.

In 2019 I officially launched my artistic career after a long hiatus from studying fine art in College. I began by creating larger paintings in oils (my first love) when I realized that the slow nature of oil paint was not conducive to a life surrounded by three very energetic boys.

I began to explore creating in watercolours, which was an entirely different experience for me, but one that provided a quicker end result and could be completed during nap time.

I also taught in-person art classes to homeschool children that surrounded the history of the masters and the exploration of different artistic styles. It brought me so much joy to infuse a love of art into their young lives.

I worked in original collections from 2019 to 2020, creating work in batches based around a specific theme and creating prints from a limited number of my paintings. I offered my work exclusively to my collectors who generously supported my creative practice in multiple ways.

In 2021 I received my own large Epson printer and began printing all of my art in-house. My work began to sustain my family in a more dependable and reliable way.
