I envision a world where all people live deeply connected to the divine beauty that lives both within and around them.

My paintings capture the sense of relaxation, a quiet mind, and the spirit of gratitude that I feel when I’m outside in nature.
I believe that we’re all naturally creative, but sometimes need a guide to open ourselves up to it. My classes and workshops use art and nature as a metaphor to empower my students with the freedom to be curious, explore, and choose what happens next. As they create art, my students rediscover their child-like joy of play, reconnect with their true self, and learn to recognize the divine beauty within and without. Together, my work helps you live connected to the divine beauty within and without.

I give back to the community by teaching free art classes to elementary school students in Arlington County, Virginia through the Virginia Tech 4H program, through my work as a Virginia Master Naturalist, and by routinely donate a percent of my revenue to organizations working to preserve the environment of the Chesapeake Bay.
