My studio is filled with watercolor commissions I can’t fully share yet — a bird, an engagement portrait, and a pet portrait — all created as meaningful gifts for loved ones.

This year, my creative goal is simple: one watercolor painting each month. The first—mountains and reflections—brings me back to childhood memories of growing up in Alaska.

From joyful gifts to meaningful originals, client messages remind me why I paint. These heartfelt testimonials reflect the quiet power of art to connect and comfort.

I’m beyond thrilled to share that I’ve been selected as a 2026 Parade of Hearts artist. When the acceptance email arrived, I burst into tears of joy! While I can’t reveal my heart design yet, I’m deeply honored to be part of a project that celebrates unity, creativity, and the heart of Kansas City. This dream-come-true moment is one I’ll cherish forever.
