Belief About Art
Everybody needs art. It is not reserved for the wealthy or cultured or those with a discerning eye. What you like to see within your spaces is not up for judgment. Art can inspire you, make you question everything you know or can just simply put a smile on your face. On your darkest of days, that can be more than enough. Let’s not overthink the meaning of things. Go with your gut. And remember, the only thing art needs to ‘go with’ in your home is YOU. Your couch doesn’t care what hangs above it.
Pattern mixing brings me joy and ignites my soul. I love creating forms that don’t exist as we see them in life. I find the expected boring and beauty in the imperfections. Many of my pieces carry a message of being bold. Bold to me is being unapologetically yourself. The world needs all of us to show up as we are and claim our seat at the table. I’m so glad you found me along your journey. If you find something here that speaks to you, “Thank you!”, and may you continue to have a bold heart.
“Find out who are are and do it on purpose” -Dolly Parton
