Maybe it wasn’t the most solid plan, but I’m happy to report that we have both now fully recovered and are enjoying the memory of our wedding day in the form of a painting. ��We got married in 2020 so the reception we had planned got canned and we had only family and 5 friends gather in the backyard of the air b n b for the reception. My brother DJ’d from his iPhone and a karaoke machine. At some point we ordered pizza. And I loved every single minute.

I’ve been painting at weddings for over a decade, and to be honest I’m not sure I really understood the appeal for the collector. Creating this piece has made me appreciate what wedding painting can mean— for a person, for a space. It’s worth thinking you have to move boxes for.

Part 2 will show the painting itself, the process behind it, and where we hung it in our home. 🤍

One of the things I love about studying historic works is noticing how emotion is carried through color and shape.

“Mother and Child After Picasso” began while revisiting Picasso’s 1901 “Mother and Child” and evolved into something rooted in movement and color through my own process.

Less about recreating an image, more about translating a feeling.

What is a painting you always come back to?

This Mother’s Day, I’m gifting a 10x10 enhanced giclee print of “Room at the Table” to one meaningful woman whose story deserves to be honored.

Instead of entering here, I’m asking to hear about the mom in your life who has shown up in a way that matters. The quiet, the strong, the unseen, the unforgettable.

It isn’t very often, but occasionally I set down my palette knives and pick up a brush—just because. But no matter the tool, I’m always exploring how shape and color interact.

This one is a little deceiving. It looks like a hummingbird, but I really think it’s about wonky triangles—dancing triangles.

What I love about art is the invitation to look closely, to see what’s really at the heart of it all.

A closer look at “Can’t We Elope”

A picnic of soft moments, layered florals, and movement comes alive in this painting. The texture is so inviting, I want to take a bite! Which begs the question…. Can’t we elope on a picnic with some cantaloupe?

Celebrate spring with my Blooms collection! Link in bio or DM for more details
