Behind the Canvas
Created to Create
I am a multi-medium artist who has been drawing and creating for as long as I can remember. With a Fine Art and Design degree from the Art Academy of Cincinnati and the University of Cincinnati, plus a minor in Marketing, I blend formal training with an intuitive passion for artistic expression.
Art has always been my way of expressing feelings, showing love to others, and bringing joy into people’s lives. I approach my craft with an open heart and a curious mind, never shying away from learning new techniques or exploring different mediums and styles. For me, art isn’t just a profession—it’s a calling. I find inspiration in everyday life and my surroundings, and often my creative visions even extend into my dreams.
When I’m not in my studio, I treasure time with my family—my husband, three sons, two daughters-in-law, and one precious grandbaby. My personal life enriches my artistic perspective, bringing depth and warmth to my creative work.
My artistic philosophy is grounded in my faith and captured in my motto: “Created to Create” (Ephesians 2:10). This belief drives my continuous exploration of diverse styles and techniques—always learning, always creating, and always seeking new ways to touch hearts through my art.
