Living in Montana taught me to find beauty in wild places- rushing rivers, colorful trout, mountain landscapes, and fields of wildflowers. Today, as a wife and mother of two amazing kids, I paint those places not exactly as they look, but as they feel: vibrant, joyful, and full of wonder. My family reminds me every day not to take life too seriously, to be curious, and find the joy in the ordinary. That spirit finds its way into every painting I create.
