of extraordinary quality, fueled by creative impulse, instilling confidence from a divine influence

Psalm 139:14

Hello and Welcome!

I fell in love with painting when a childhood friend invited me to join a watercolor class. I was six and I’ve been painting ever since. I fell in love with Jesus in college and have been inspired by his love for me through the beauty and wonder of creation from that moment on.

I am a BGSU Falcon with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in computer art and painting. I’m a traditional painter specializing in oils, acrylics, and watercolor. I strive to inspire others to see God’s creation with a sense of wonder and joy, often incorporating reflective and inspirational elements into my work. At the same time, a touch of playful storytelling naturally finds its way into my art, influenced by my background in animation and my love for imaginative expression.

I am a wife and mom of three. I have a master’s degree in church planting, working part time designing resources and sharing my love for Jesus with college students. I love dark chocolate, walking in the woods, music that moves my soul and my feet, cooking without recipes, deep conversations, and of course painting! I am a believer, a dreamer, an encourager, a leader, and a teacher. I dive in heart first and give 110%.

I currently call Zanesville, Ohio my home and participate with the Artist Colony of Zanesville (ArtCOZ) and the Zanesville Appalachian Arts Project (ZAAP). I also love nurturing budding artists as a painting teacher at Julie’s Artery.

I can’t wait to meet you!
