Inspired by travel and life experiences, my paintings reveal the poetic character and personal meaning found within each subject through luminous watercolor.
Influenced by generations of artists in my family, I honor that creative legacy through painting and teaching—encouraging artists to look beyond first impressions, connect with, and paint from their own experiences.
For more than 25 years, I’ve conducted international plein air retreats and workshops and, since 2019, developed immersive online watercolor programs for artists of all levels.

Inspired by the women artists in her family, she discovered early on that creativity has the power to shape a wonderful life. Painting is both a personal and shared journey. Every artist brings their own style and point of view, and seeing those unique expressions emerge enriches us all. Through painting, they connect more deeply with the places we experience, the moments we share, and one another.
