Howdy Friend!

Welcome to my nook of the internet. This site is a compendium of my artwork, a virtual storefront, and a little introduction about myself. 

Visual expression is my first language. I’ve been making art, designing, crafting, decorating, doodling and noodling since I can remember. I received my BFA in Illustration from CSU Fullerton in 2022, but it was only after I graduated that I earnestly dove into paint. 

My professional career ventured into UI/UX design, which removed pressure from my art, releasing the creative creature in me to make art for art’s sake. Now, art has become a sacred practice for me to explore worlds both within and without, hopefully inspiring others to do the same. 

Currently, I am based out of the sleepy surf town of Encinitas, just north of San Diego. You can catch me live painting throughout California at various festivals and events. In the near future, I plan to expand my reach beyond to events in other parts of the world as well! 

My artistic ethos is to ignite a flame of inspiration in whomever may behold my work. I see inspiration as a portal to imagination, a space of infinite ideas with the power to reveal the extraordinary in even the most “ordinary” moments. It’s hard to trace a single theme or style through the evolution of my art, but to me, a successful piece is a window of perception that invites new perspective into your experience.

May we never stop loving, learning, and inspiring!

Please reach out with inquiries about commissions, collaborations, scheduling events, or philosophies. I’m open to any creative connection!
