I am a multi-media visual artist with a love of fantasy, botanicals, and whimsy. My artistic journey started at a very young age when I discovered I was pretty good with a pencil. I wanted to 'be an artist' ever since.
After receiving a BFA in Graphic Design and then an MA in Visual Development, my interest in different medias really blossomed. In my opinion, while digital art is the now, there is nothing like using the trusty pencil and ink.
I spend my current days as a graphic designer, freelance tattoo designer, and a cat parent of two living in the state of New York. In my free time, I am a performer, costume designer and scenic painter at local and long distance community theaters.
Mural Statement: A honey bear bottle sits on a bed of wildflowers with a bee and a heart embossed on the bottle. Little bees buzz around the bottle and the flowers. Beekeeping is super important as is pollination by bees. Honey is one of the number one products I seek out at Farmers Markets and is a household staple in my life. Whether I use it to bake or put it in my evening tea, honey is always in my cabinet. I wanted this mural to be a homage to the honey bees make, to the collection of the honey by beekeepers and being bottled to bring into our homes!
