R e s u m e

I’ve always had busy hands and a curious mind and have felt the need to make art since I was a child. I began taking fashion design and fashion illustration classes in the teen program offered at The Chicago Art Institute. My love of clothing has never entirely disappeared. In college, my passion for color and texture broadened to include painting and seriography, and a love for ancient art history and classics. I am always aspiring to wed themes from ancient art history with a more personal iconography.

I’ve been fortunate to have the opportunity to move and travel quite a bit, always gaining a wider appreciation for cultural differences. Wherever I’ve lived, I’ve taken advantage of local art centers, museums, and on-the-job training. While spending a year in rural North Carolina, I took a one-day workshop in silk painting from a visiting Frenchwoman and was immediately hooked on the ways color moves across fabric. The process is meditative, yet immediate, since you must work quickly to keep up with the movement of the dyes.

My work is available for purchase at Etsy and 1000Markets. I have a portfolio for the trade on Trunkt. I am a member of WWAO (Worldwide Women Artists Online), an international collective of women artists showing and selling our original work online.
