I am a mixed media artist living along the coast of Maine, where the natural landscape, changing seasons, and rhythms of daily life continually shape my creative world. Much of my inspiration comes from the people and creatures closest to me—my kids, our pets, and the small, often-overlooked moments that make up everyday life. My work is frequently described as whimsical, textural, nostalgic, and full of personality. As an illustrator, I’m drawn to storytelling through imagery, infusing each piece with playful humor and a sense of warmth. I love experimenting with hand-painted textures, layered materials, and organic elements, preserving a handmade feel even in my digital or mixed media pieces. Whether I’m capturing a fleeting expression, a quirky slice of family life, or the quiet magic of the natural world, my goal is always to create work that feels alive, heartfelt, and a little bit fun.
