Hello and welcome to my website! I am a professional fine artist and illustrator who lives in the dreamy Smoky Mountains of East Tennessee. I love traditional art as well as digital but finding inspiration from nature and life is what drives my motivation to create realistic portraits, landscapes, and still-life's. Although, I do have experience working with all kinds of different mediums, my favorite ones to work with are colored pencils, watercolors, oil, and acrylics. 

     I graduated from Savannah College of Art and Design with a BFA in Illustration. I fell in love with the city of Savannah when my family and I were on a road trip, driving back home from Florida to New Jersey(where I grew up). So being able to study art at SCAD was a huge dream of mine since I was young… and that dream came true.

   During my college career, when I was only 19, I happened to meet a new dream, my husband. After I graduated from SCAD and my husband and I had our first son, I became a stay-at-home momma and we decided that we needed to make our first move as a family. The Smoky Mountains were calling us. 

     Not too long after relocating to Tennessee, we had our first daughter and now we are a family of four! My babies are what really inspire me to create beautiful portraits and our home is what gives me the imagination to paint magical landscapes and colorful scenes.
