Welcome!

FINDING YOUR VOICE AS AN ARTIST IS A LIFELONG JOURNEY…

A journey that can transform lives and bring truth, beauty and passion into the world.

Maybe finding your creative voice starts with giving yourself permission to not be “perfect” and break a few rules… 

Wherever you are in your creative journey, I’m here to help you take that next step.

Creativity gives me life.

When I’m not helping my fellow artists cultivate their creativity or launch their dream websites, you’ll find me happily creating in my home studio.

My art brings together acrylic paint, pastels, upcycled papers, wax crayons, pens, pencils, stamps, stitching and many other mediums in bold and colorful collages. It’s my place to let go, ditch perfectionism, and express my deepest feelings with a blend of words, visuals and crafting.

In my spare time (HA!) I love to read, bake all the things, sleep in, travel and go barefoot on the beach. Oh yes, did I mention I live in beautiful sunny Florida? My hubby of 32 years and I love working with youths in our church, whom we see as family. I also have a heart for mission work, having served in Panama, El Salvador, Romania and Honduras.
