I am an illustrator, artist and printmaker living in Milwaukee, WI. I work mainly with traditional media on paper, canvas, and wood, as well as linocut printmaking. My illustrations are created using combinations of graphite, ink, watercolor, colored pencil and acrylic, and then sometimes edited or enhanced using digital methods. Each piece incorporates a variety of mediums and techniques with layers of colors and flowing line work to create movement, mood and emotion. My work is inspired by nature, the beautiful shores of Lake Michigan, gardening, fashion and lifestyle, motherhood, health, wellness and yoga. I always strive to push the boundaries of my creativity and to continue growing and learning as an artist.
