Art with Heart: Brightening Spaces, Enhancing Well-being
"There are no rules. That is how art is born, how breakthroughs happen. Go against the rules or ignore the rules. That is what invention is about." – Helen Frankenthaler

About Me
I am an abstract artist from Seattle. I was first inspired by an artist at a local county fair—a moment that led me to pursue a BA in Visual Art at Seattle Pacific University. After college, facing health challenges and the demands of parenthood, I turned to creating art to support my well-being. As my health improved, painting gave me a renewed sense of purpose.
In my Seattle studio, I primarily work with acrylics on canvas, delighting in the use of bold colors and diverse shapes. My pieces are vibrant, bursting with colors that uplift and energize.
My art adds brightness and optimism to everyday life. Outside the studio, I value spending time with my family, enjoying the outdoors, and taking walks with my husband and our two dogs.
Artist Statement
My work is primarily abstract, drawing inspiration from the vivid colors and striking shapes found in both nature and architecture. Gentle curves and the sharp lines of structures inspire my pieces, which are full of textures and intricate details.
I begin with bold strokes of color that naturally develop into fascinating shapes. I layer, adjust, and sometimes conceal parts. Guided by instinct and what delights me, I refine the shapes and colors until the composition achieves balance and harmony. As I finalize a piece, I add depth by enhancing and defining the shapes with extra line work. I keep working on the final touches to bring everything together until I feel deeply satisfied with the results.
I bring hope and optimism through my bright, bold artwork. My art goes beyond mere decor; it serves as a reminder of the beauty, joy, and simplicity that surround us, inviting viewers to find contentment in the vibrant shapes and colors.
