This past weekend Clark and I took a leap of faith and put an offer on this home and we were accepted! I have been on cloud 9, over-the-moon happy! The past couple days have been a dream come true – a MIRACLE that we found this perfect home to build our family in. I am SO excited! I am so thrilled to have the space to live in and be creative. I am looking forward to sharing our home with friends and family! The possibilities are endless!!! I am so so SO grateful and feel overwhelmingly blessed. ♥

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.
