Artist Bio: I am a native California artist working in a variety of mediums from acrylic on wood panel and canvas to digital renderings and mixed media works.
My earliest memory of knowing I wanted to make art was after I received a set of high quality felt-tip markers as a Christmas gift. The back of the package had a painting by Monet, who I was not familiar with at the time. I thought someone had rendered that painting with markers, which led me to believe if someone else did that then I could too. What ambition for an eight year old!
My work ranges from abstract landscapes to modern design, urban sketching, and pencil figurative work.
I believe in the democracy of art, that art belongs to everyone. I create works that fall into a variety of price ranges, making my work available to a range of budgets and buyers.
My art is an adventure. I am constantly trying out new styles and techniques, but when I look at my collection as a whole, I see a similar palette or unique signature that defines my individual nature. I continue to grow and learn and discover through my art.
I received my BA in Fine Arts from Cal State East Bay and show my art in galleries in the Bay Area. I am represented by several fine art publishers and online third party sites such as Saatchi, Great Big Canvas, Red Bubble, Zazzle, and Artfully Walls. I live with my husband in Martinez, a suburb of San Francisco.
