Artist Statement

I paint with coffee, not just because it smells better than turpentine, but because it lets me brew entire worlds:

surreal, some deeply real, often both.

 

My work explores the in-between imagination and nature, humor and depth, wild creatures and wild dreams.

 

I love creating visual stories that invite people to look twice, smile, and feel something new

​

Drawing on precision from my past as an aerospace engineer, I blend technical finesse with warmth and humor.

 

As a mother navigating life’s fleeting moments, themes of time, resilience, and connection frequently surface through hourglasses, playful creatures, and dreamlike scenes.

 

My coffee paintings offer a cozy yet surprising escape into small narratives with global reach.
