A Dive Into Memory
This series was birthed out of a dive into the basics in school. Teaching about the elements of art and the principles of design led me into work that would translate well with my students. My hope was that my intentionality with shape and unity could create work that sparked shared experience/views, revived core memories, and highlighted simplicity. Aesthetically, I also just really enjoyed diving into my version of divisionism.
Lil Flower Paintings
A conversation with childhood me. A replica of my notebook doodles and journal scrapbooking that I remember bringing me the most joy from about kindergarten to ninth grade.
Custom Framing
A newfound passion was awakened in me in 2022 when I was introduced to the world of custom framing. I became a cashier at Micheal's and dove so deep that within a year I became the frame shop manager. Everything about talking about art, selecting what would bring the art to life, and knowing that the work would be saved and better preserved for years captivated me. I left michael's and began doing what was more intriguing to me: refurbishing and reusing frames, problem solving to creatively frame artwork of odd size or origin, and fine tuning frame/ frame accessories to more specifically match artwork.
Gallery Walls
Curating a space to tell a story about you is one of my favorite things to do. After creating my first one with the help of my roommate one inebriated night in Arkansas led me down a path of always needed at least one gallery wall in my home. The thought, the intentionality, the ever-changing circumstances and problems to work around excites me and challenges me in the most perfect, Goldilocks balanced way.
Paint Parties
Just another extension of my love for teaching. I love anyone thinking to add an art element to any gathering. The perfect way to have fun and leave with a keepsake. Book your next paint party with me!
