What We Carry

A painted meditation on ancestry and transformation, What We Carry weaves together the symbolism of the orange branch and the moth. Each piece invites reflection on what is inherited, what is shed, and what is reborn. Rooted in memory, reaching toward change.

Going Coastal

A watercolor tribute to the wild beauty of Southern California. This series features plants and animals found on the coast—poppies, palms, parrots, and more—capturing the vibrant, sun-soaked essence of the region through soft brushwork and muted color.

I Am Women

A bold exploration of feminine energy in motion. This black and white series blends textured finger-painted acrylics with minimalist ink figure drawings—each piece capturing strength, softness, and the raw power of being fully embodied.

Spooky & Sweet

A playful Halloween series featuring charming, cartoon-style characters like friendly ghosts and a black cat in a witch hat. These lighthearted illustrations bring a touch of magic and mischief—perfect for the season of spells and smiles.
