Say Yes

January 16, 2022 Aprille

Sometimes it's a good idea to say yes when something out of the ordinary comes along and figure out what you'll do with the opportunity later. Inspiration can't be rushed.

Storm Days

January 9, 2022January 9, 2022 Aprille

I admit that I love blizzards. Even as an adult, they still give me the guilty pleasure of a snow day off of school. There's just something about being snowed in with nothing to do but watch the weather that appeals to me.

I baked a cake from scratch this week and in the process, I learned something important about why I love making art. One thing that changes everything for me.

Playing With Oils

May 31, 2021May 31, 2021 Aprille

I'm obsessed with getting out to the studio to play with a new-to-me medium - oils. I love the buttery way they spread and blend on the canvas. I love the richness of the colours. There's an element of freedom with them that I have been missing.

Why Nature Inspires Me

May 24, 2021September 1, 2024 Aprille

Nature is my inspiration. My art is a way to capture the awe and wonder I feel and to share that with others so that more of us "stop to smell the roses".
