I paint, I design….to notice what is right in front of me, to stop, to “take note”. My hope is that my art helps you to see the beauty in the everyday.
I am an abstract artist and graphic designer just outside Portland, Oregon, with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Graphic Design and Studio Art. I have been practicing in the field of art and design for over 22 years.
Over the last few years, I have taken my love for art and design into the classroom. Students are so inspiring. In my journey into teaching, I have discovered that I am a learner, a co-collaborator with my students. The adventure is exciting and inspiring as I work alongside on their projects. I want to instill a love for art, creativity, innovation, and imagination.
My hope is that my work as an artist and teacher can help us slow down and see in new ways as we notice the beauty around us.
