My Background
I am an artist living in Decatur, GA. Originally from Mississippi, I come from a family of artists ... painters, designers, poets, and just generally creative folks. I have been a designer, a gallery associate, and a pre-school art teacher. Now I paint full-time and teach a children’s art class in my studio.

My Background
I work in a variety of media, including oil and acrylic paint, charcoal, and graphite. While my portraits are created using more traditional media, my narrative paintings are constructed with both brushes and non-traditional tools such as children’s toys, found objects, and kitchen gadgets to make multilayered marks.

My Inspiration
I like to collect ideas, images, book quotes, lyrics … from these bits, I create characters and environments in order to construct meaningful relationships within an image. My paintings are fantastical narratives about human experiences and emotions.
