About Me
I'm a 90's, cartoon spirited girl at heart and I believe this body of work displays that part of me. As you can see, I'm addicted to color, boldness, and overall being silly when I create. My influences are grunge rock, anime, and my love of people and animals. Whether it's someone we all know and love to my personal characters, each piece uniquely describes me as an artist.
I specialize in custom artwork. I work in watercolor predominately, but have been known to take on some acrylic, and pencil commission requests. I use your vision and bring it to life. Sometimes it's hard to get the perfect picture of everyone together, especially with children and animals. That is OK! I don't need them all together. I can work from your favorite photos and pose them together for you in the background style of your choice.
There's lots of options and if you're looking for something completely creative and you're just using photos as a reference point, we can bring it to life. Maybe you're wanting that perfect family portrait with the kids wearing that shirt they refused to wear, or what if you needed to add someone to a picture? I can do just about anything you can think up. You want to be a superhero?! Well, I'm here for it! Whether it's your favorite rockstar, or your favorite flower, let's make it happen!
I'm happy to say that I've been painting professionally now for over 5 years, but I've been creating art since I was a child. It's because of the wonderful people, who's paintings I've featured on this website I get to do what I've dreamed about since I was a little kid. I'd love to hear from you and see how we can work together on your project. Let me fill your world with color!
