This year, I am taking a new step as an artist. I want to share my work with my community. I am also hoping to earn an income by doing something that feels very natural and nourishing to me. This website is a tool and a catalyst for me to make this transformation.
Our world needs more images of hope and connection. We are bombarded with imagery aimed at convincing us that we need something: that we are incomplete. My hope as an artist is to create images that we can rest with, reminding us that our day is filled with little miracles. And that yes, indeed, we are enough just as we are.
I am a also committed to creating art that is accessible to children. Many of my images are welcoming to children and the spaces they spend time in. Art is a companion to the imagination, an old friend who grows with us and reminds us of the beauty of being human.
