Aurora over The Lake Painting

My mixed media assemblages and art dolls are a celebration of storytelling through texture, color, and found materials. Each piece is a whimsical exploration of life’s narratives, crafted with watercolor, acrylics, ephemera, and carefully curated objects that have lived a story of their own. I embrace the beauty of imperfection, combining the nostalgic charm of vintage items with playful, contemporary design. In my work, I seek to inspire joy, reflection, and connection by layering fragments of the past with uplifting quotes and themes of imagination. Every element—whether a worn piece of lace or a weathered trinket—finds new purpose as part of a cohesive, heartfelt vision. This process mirrors life’s serendipitous moments, where disparate parts come together to create something wholly unique and full of meaning.
