Maybe I’m just nosy, but not knowing Mona Lisa’s true identity or why Titian used that particular shade of red drives me mad. I just love a good backstory. A heartbreak behind a song lyric, the namesake of a book character, or the actual meal that inspired a recipe…those stories bring it all to life for me. As an artist, I know every painting, sculpture, or textile…every piece of jewelry, comic strip, or quilt…every architectural design, garden, or hairstyle…all began with an idea…an inspiration…a moment.

My art is a bit all over the place – like me, I suppose. A range of styles and vibes. My creative path has been rather winding. But, there is a scarlet thread:
Moments worth sharing.
Each photo is meant to honor a moment so captivating that I just couldn’t keep it to myself.
Each word is a whisper I’ve used to heal my own heart.
Each design is an echo of something fleeting and precious.

After years of gathering treasured snapshots, creating fine art and fun styles, and building a business on bare courage and blind hope – you now see a shop full of my nature-honoring creations.
But, I still see the beautiful memories.
I’d like to use this journal to celebrate those memories…and share them with you.
