Paintings anchor

Paintings are a combination of abstract expressionism, representational items (usually from nature), textiles (fabric, thread, mixed media), and written text. These elements are brought together with movement, texture, and emotion. And, of course, lots of color!

Textiles Anchor

Embroidery hoops feel like the crafterly version of terrariums, creating interesting mini worlds that sustain themselves simply and beautifully. When I see them hanging in homes they feel whimsical, quaint, and comforting, bringing a simpler time to a modern experience.

As an illustrator, my favorite style is making use of simple and elegant line.

COMMISSION & MEMORIAL PIECES

 

If you have an idea for a painting or illustration that you'd like commissioned please be in touch! I love to hear what clients have in mind, whether it be something in the abstract expressionist style of the paintings you see above, or something else like a portrait, landscape, or memorial piece.

Losing a loved one is one of the hardest experienced we face in life. Beyond learning the gradual steps for moving beyond grief and loss, part of our struggle is in figuring out how to remember those we cherished in life and now honor in death. Often these tokens of remembrance include traditional items like photos, jewelry, clothing, and locks of hair, or other materials like playing cards, knitting needles, earbuds, or anything else that's significant. These are the mementos that remind us of things they loved, who they were, and how they made us feel. They help us recall the memories we shared. Through memorial paintings and textile pieces, I incorporate those tokens of remembrance into artwork while also making note of any suggestions and preferences you have for your specific piece to honor, remember, and celebrate the life of someone you cherish.

 

Prices vary according to subject matter, medium, size, and timeline. Please contact me if you would like to discuss the creation of your memorial piece or other commission project.

Art Statement

ART  STATEMENT

 

With challenges through chronic health issues, I’ve come to realize the importance of regularly focusing on positivity in a mindful way. Looking at images and items full of joy has become a daily meditative practice that stimulates self-awareness. Where do I find beauty? What makes me smile? What leaves me feeling inspired, even hopeful? What lifts me to feel better than I felt before?

These insights and inspirations are the kinds of things I incorporate into my own work in an effort to pass on the goodness. I draw on interests of vintage goods, textiles, patterned fabric, color, emotion, nostalgia, language, and nature. My goal is to provide something you can lose yourself in, if only for a moment, and come away from with encouragement and comfort.

Nature plays a large role in my work and a portion of sales is donated for animal welfare and nature conservation. Thank you for your support!

Larger work requires that I check on shipping costs and options based on the ship to location.
