My second grade teacher was the first to see fine art as a potential path for me, but it wasn’t ‘til after a degree in fine art from Samford University that I began the process of growing as a solo artist. Painting has stretched me in so many ways and I’m grateful I get to do what I love everyday. I hope to create work that is honest and inspires people of all ages.I was raised in Jacksonville, FL but have made my home for the last 8 years in Birmingham, AL. My palettes and subject matter are heavily influenced by my upbringing along the east coast.I paint entirely from the three primaries (red, yellow + blue) and white. This has helped me gain a strong understanding of color theory.Thank you for your encouragement and for following along on this journey.
