I am an artist, a musician, a chef, an outdoor enthusiast, and a lover of all art forms and medias.

Born and raised in Kansas City, MO I have always been pulled towards nature. It is where my creativity begins. Walking around barefoot somewhere beautiful is not only grounding but motivating. In 2019 I moved to Crested Butte, CO to experience the beautiful rocky mountains and try to capture them in my paintings. I am endlessly mesmerized by my surroundings and am always looking to explore.

about my style

My pixelated skies started as an abstract metaphor for our technological existence. From there I started to form a style that, for the most part, focuses on the contrast between geometric abstraction and flowing landscapes.

I am always looking for new ideas and practicing new techniques which means my style and subject constantly changes, which in my opinion is the best part about painting.

Art therapy

There is endless mindfulness that goes into creating art. One of my favorite things about painting is the texture of paint flowing on the canvas. Painting is a meditation and has been a true medicine for myself, so I hope I can help others use art to help themselves as well!

I’ve been interested in psychology and mental well-being since I was a little kid, but school was never my strong suit. As I grew up I realized that’s not because “I’m stupid” but because my brain doesn’t work in the ways necessary to survive in the American school system. I needed a significant break from it all after high school. Then, years later, my became hop on a plane to Europe to learn in more psychologically progressive schools.

So here I am, studying online, and saving up for a plane ticket to Valencia, Spain hoping to continue my artistic journey and help others do the same.
