ABOUT the ARTIST

I'm so glad you're here!

I’ve turned my lifelong hobby into an avenue for connection.

Now, I split my time between my “day job” and live painting since 2024. Like so many on social media, I fell in love with the idea. Unfortunately, I discovered it after I got married in 2023. I would have loved to have a painter at my own wedding… but I thought, I could totally do this, too!

I want to bring other lovely newlyweds the experience I missed out on. I am revitalized with the privilege of sharing my gifts with so many sweet couples. I can’t think of a better way to preserve your precious memories with your loved ones.

Making art has been my passion since childhood.

My childhood was enriched art books filled with works of masters like Van Gogh, Picasso, Matisse and Monet. I created my own hand-drawn animations with frame-by-frame sequences after watching cartoons. I got up early on Saturdays to watch Bob Ross paint (RIP). I sketched passengers on the train, patrons at the cafe, and specimens at museums.

Now I’m using vibrant color and a keen eye for detail to transform the most cherished memories into beautiful works of art. I have the privilege of evoking emotions - joy, astonishment, grief, and everything in between - with my handmade creations.

While I am largely self-taught, I took classes throughout my schooling covering areas of traditional media, digital media, and even 3D sculpture/ceramics, and motion capture animation. I also supplemented my art journey with art intensives, workshops, and life figure drawing. I love surrounding myself with avenues for art, and other creatives - I am always learning something new!

I’m often found cuddling up with our cat, our newborn daughter, and a cup of coffee with my spouse.

I will eat scalding hot ramen in any weather. My favorite part of the brownie is the corner piece (yes, I said it!). I enjoy stand-up paddle boarding, playing board games, and weightlifting. I collect handmade pottery (mugs especially), and my favorite instrument is the cello.

My ideal vacation includes a sunrise hike in the mountains to an alpine lake followed by a barbecue lunch and ice cream.

When I’m not creating, I’m a hospital physical therapist by day.

FOR CHOOSING REAL ARTISTS

Traditional 2D media (paint, pencil, etc) survives generations through artists who create handmade artwork.

With the ever-growing presence and popularity of AI-generated content, it’s more important more than ever to preserve and honor these art forms.

There is nothing like experiencing the connecting and shared joy (or tears) over art. It is truly a one-of-a-kind moment that stays with me as an artist.

Clients like you who invest in live painting keep the heart, soul, and fire of performance art alive in the event industry.

Your business keeps independent artists creating, small businesses running, and families and their communities flourishing.
