About the Artist
I've been painting since I was a little girl. For as long as I can remember, art has been the way I make sense of the world. It's how I feel things, how I express things, and how I connect with people in a way that words never quite could.
Growing up, I was diagnosed with a learning disability. I was told that academics wouldn't come easy for me and that certain doors might not open the way they do for others. For a while, honestly, I believed that. But there was always the paintbrush. Always the canvas. And little by little, art gave me something no classroom ever could. Confidence. Purpose. A voice that was entirely my own.
Pet portraits found me the way the most meaningful things usually do — through loss. When I lost my cat, I didn't know how to hold that grief. So I painted her. It was my first oil portrait of an animal and something shifted in me that I'll never forget. I realized that capturing the soul of a creature who gave you nothing but unconditional love was exactly what I was meant to do.
That's what I bring to every single portrait I create. Not just twenty years of painting experience, but a deep and personal understanding of what it means to love a pet and what it means to lose one. When you trust me with your pet's portrait, I don't take that lightly. I pour everything I have into making sure that when you see it for the first time, you feel them again.
That moment is why I do this.
