Where did she go?
In 2019, I began a journey I never wanted to take into the land of chronic illness. The world shifted in ways we are just beginning to even understand in 2020 and it gave me the cover to not have to share and to hide my struggles. A lifetime of dealing with depression and anxiety left me disabled and with chronic pain and illness. 2023 is bringing healing and a renewed sense of creative possibility. I look forward to sharing my work with the world again soon.
Take care of yourself, love others, and ask for help when you are in need.

I grew up in Georgia and moved to Chattanooga in 2006. My first love was music and theater and I always appreciated the visual arts. I dabbled in a few dozen crafty mediums as I have always enjoyed creating with my hands. I began studying with an amazing teacher in 2015 and that ignited a spark to create in mixed media and acrylic. I relish the hunt for vintage books, magazines and items to use in my creations. I love that I am learning new things every time I sit down in my studio to create.
My art is inspired by the beautiful women in my life, 20 years in the beauty industry, the sporadic mood swing, an occasionally offbeat sense of humor, and the exploration of love and self. I love this artistic adventure!
