This recent trip I took was perfect. I was able to meet up with my siblings and parents – and it was … wonderful. 🙂 On our plane ride back home, I was in deep thought over the past week’s events… I had this warm blanketing feeling come over me and my thoughts lead to my brother Chip and what he must be thinking and feeling in Heaven – working hard as my guardian angel. Than this image [below] came to mind. He’s at peace – I’m at peace. It feels incredible. 🙂 I’m happy!

About the Artist

I’m an artist, author, and poet. My work is often shaped by lived experiences and by paying close attention to the world around me… nature, and the people who have helped shape my life.

I usually paint first, and the words come later. Painting has been the safest way I’ve found to be honest about things that are hard to say out loud, and over time I’ve noticed other people finding their own stories in the work too.

My paintings are meant to comfort, to feel like a presence rather than a statement, and to give space for each person to find their own meaning. The connection that happens there matters most to me.
