Born into a long line of strong and creative women, I'm proud to be an artist following the footsteps of those who came before me. Surrounded by art and music throughout my childhood, I was captivated by the endless possibilities of self-expression and the ability to create something truly unique.
As a passionate artist, I find inspiration in the world around me, capturing the essence of life's most treasured moments on my canvas. It all begins with a photograph, a frozen moment in time that I breathe new life into, transforming it into a vibrant and captivating work of art. My mission is to take that snapshot and infuse it with colors that dance and sing, creating a visual experience that leaps off the wall and into your heart.
I love bold, vivid colors that energize and uplift the spirit. Whether it's a striking portrait, a beloved pet, or the beauty of nature's flora, I pour my heart and soul into every artwork, infusing it with my passion and attention to detail.
For me art is more than just decoration - it's a way to infuse creativity into your home, transforming it into a sanctuary that reflects your unique personality and style. It's about surrounding yourself with pieces that resonate with your soul and bring you joy each time you enter a room. By adding a touch of my artistry to your space, you're inviting a sense of wonder and inspiration into your daily life.
I invite you to explore my gallery and embark on a visual journey where photographs come alive and colors ignite. Let my art be a window into my creative world, where passion meets imagination, and where every brush stroke tells a story. Together, let's create a space that celebrates life's beauty and fills your heart with joy.
Thank you for joining me on this artistic adventure.

How it’s Made
Creating an original acrylic painting involves a blend of skill, creativity, and high-quality materials. Here’s a detailed look into the process and materials I use to bring each artwork to life:
1. Choosing the Canvas
Material: I use flat board canvases, which provide a sturdy surface that is less prone to warping compared to traditional stretched canvases.
Preparation: Each canvas board is prepped with a layer of gesso, ensuring a smooth and even surface that enhances the adherence and vibrancy of the acrylic paints.
2. High-Quality Paints
Golden Fluid Acrylics: I use Golden Fluid Acrylics for all my paintings. Known for their high pigment load and smooth consistency, these paints offer excellent color saturation and a beautiful finish.
Pigment Quality: The pigments in Golden Fluid Acrylics are finely ground, providing superior coverage and a rich, vibrant color that doesn’t fade over time.
Consistency: The fluid consistency of these paints allows for easy blending and layering, enabling the creation of intricate details and smooth gradients.
3. The Creative Process
Sketching: Each painting begins with a detailed sketch on the prepared canvas. This initial drawing helps in planning the composition and placement of elements.
Layering Paint: Using Golden Fluid Acrylics, I build up layers of color. The quick-drying nature of acrylics allows for rapid layering without long wait times.
Base Layer: A base layer of complementary colors is applied first. This underpainting peeks through subsequent layers, adding depth and interest.
Main Layers: Subsequent layers are applied to develop the main forms and details. The high pigment concentration in Golden Fluid Acrylics ensures vibrant colors with each stroke.
Textures and Details: To add texture and dimension, I use various techniques such as glazing, stippling, and dry brushing. The fluidity of the paints allows for smooth transitions and fine detail work.
Finishing Touches: Once the main painting is complete, I add final touches to enhance highlights, shadows, and intricate details, ensuring the piece has a polished and cohesive look.
4. Framing
Frame not included.
5. Varnishing
Protection: A final varnish is applied to protect the painting from dust, UV rays, and other environmental factors. This step enhances the colors and gives the artwork a finished look, ensuring its longevity.
