I paint what moves me. No art school, just years of looking, collecting, and painting it. My first dream was fashion design, and I still think like a designer. I paint color, texture, and feeling. I was a therapist and makeup artist before I painted full time. That work taught me to read makeup and fashion as language, not mask. I am interested in how style tells a story. I work in mixed media and my reference archive runs from Vermeer to Vogue. I am rooted in loving the classics and curating the now.
