Close Up – Detail

The days are just a handful now until we know who will be our president for the next 4 (maybe 8) years. It’s been a rough road, but I am impressed by Romney’s hard work and proven history. I consider myself a moderate and try my best to be open minded whether the candidate be Republican or Democrat. I hope for the best for Mitt Romney in the upcoming debates, and wish him well on election day. Bottom line, whoever becomes the elected president of the United States, I hope and pray they can improve America’s economy for the better soon! Here is my painting of Mitt Romney… up next, I’ll be creating a painting of President Barack Obama. 🙂

About the Artist

I am an advocate first, and an artist second. My paintings create visual comfort-- spaces where grief, hope, and healing can live together without apology...

I paint what matters most: the people you cherish, the moments that shaped you, the feelings that need witness. Through art, your most precious memories move outside of you and into your home, where they can be held, seen, and never forgotten.

My work is rooted in three commitments: honoring the experiences of indigenous communities and the history of the land we inhabit; creating safe space for children and women whose voices have been silenced; and recording the honest truth of lived experience-- both my own and that of those who came before me. I believe art has the power to tell stories that words alone cannot, and to preserve what must not be lost or forgotten. I believe that all that we know about ourselves is because Art has preserved those stories throughout history, outliving those who created it.

When you encounter my work, I hope you find yourself in it-- not as escape, but as recognition. I hope it reminds you that your feelings matter, that your story deserves to be held, and that compassion and truth are still worth carrying forward.

Art is the voice that speaks honestly through the heart. 💝🪷
