I love to challenge myself to see the world around me, my experiences, my faith, and life challenges in a new light, to come up with a piece that turns my experience into a beautiful piece of art. I believe a story can only be as good as your experiences and a blank canvas is a story waiting to be written. My work is layered with messages of hope, inspiration, and beauty.
I primarily work with oils and charcoals on canvas, but lately I have been using a mixture of mediums on paper. My favorite mediums to work with right now are Acrylic inks, oils and charcoals on paper.
Timeline & Achievements: Some of my early work was inspired by my travels, to south Africa, Cambodia, Thailand, and Costa Rica. Traveling the world gave me the opportunity to see first hand the struggles and trials people face in everyday day situations. In 2012, I started painting and drawing using art as a message to encourage and uplift people. In 2014, I toured the United States with my art giving many people hope through my work. I also had the privilege of working on illustrations for a children's book that is going around the world, raising money for orphanages and to help children from sex trafficking. I also illustrated a book cover that is being sold nationally and internationally. In 2015, I was privileged to be able to have my art displayed in a fine art gallery in Down Town Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
