FAQ Here's a list of answer to the questions I'm asked most frequently.
How did you became an artist? I’ve been making art for as long as I can remember. I built things and collected junk, built a fort, was always creative and that curiosity grew into formal study in college. Over time, making art stopped being something I did and became how I understand the world. I’m still learning, experimenting, making and evolving — that part never ends.
Where can I see your work? You can see my work right here on this website, where I regularly update new pieces and projects. I also share work on social media and exhibit in galleries, community spaces, and pop-up shows. If you’re local, there’s a good chance you’ll run into my work around town.
Do you sell your artwork? Yes. Most of my work is available for purchase unless it’s marked otherwise. If you’re interested in a specific piece, or want to know what’s currently available, the best thing to do is reach out directly. I’m always happy to talk about pricing, size, and options.
How can I hire you to create a custom piece of art? It starts with a conversation. I like to understand what you’re drawn to, where the piece will live, and what kind of feeling you’re hoping for. From there, we can talk about scale, timeline, and budget to see if it’s a good fit for both of us.
Do you offer art lessons? Yes. I offer both private and small-group lessons for adults and children. Lessons can be structured or exploratory, depending on your goals — whether you want to build fundamentals, experiment with materials, or just reconnect with making art for the joy of it.
