a little about me

MY STORY

Born with a rare disorder, I've never let anything stop me from pursuing my dreams. From a young age, I taught myself to use my mouth in place of my hands. Over time, I developed a love for art and soon began painting. With a Masters degree in Clinical Psychology and after years of struggling to find employment, I decided to pursue my dream of being an artist painting 5-6 commissioned pieces a year. Always perfecting my style, it's because of those who purchase my work that I'm able to buy more supplies and continue to create art!

my Inspiration

I enjoy the beauty of nature and many of my paintings are inspirations from places I've seen. Beaches, starry skies, and all things floral are my biggest inspirations and favorites to paint.
