WELCOME!
Guided by my faith in Jesus Christ, I paint from Scripture—translating God’s truth, grace, and compassion into oil paintings that invite reflection, stillness, and a deeper awareness of His presence. My desire is to create meaningful Christian artwork that magnifies His glory and encourages others in their walk with Him.
About the Artist
Her formal artistic training began with the study of human anatomy at the Denver General Hospital School for X-Ray Technicians. She later earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Colorado Denver, concentrating in drawing, life drawing, and oil painting. Additional studies at the Rocky Mountain School of Art and Design, along with watercolor training under Betty Demauree, further shaped her artistic foundation—techniques she continues to integrate into her oil paintings today.
Working exclusively in oils, she creates Christian artwork that blends realism with impressionistic nuance. While portraits and the human figure remain her primary focus, she occasionally explores landscapes and florals as a source of creative renewal and artistic reflection.
Moments with Gramma
My story began in Valley City, North Dakota, where my grandparents played a formative role in both my faith and my journey as a Christian artist. In the early mornings, I would often wake to find my Gramma praying—frequently for her grandchildren, including me. Those quiet moments left a lasting imprint.
Years later, when a neighbor prayed with me to accept the Lord, my Gramma wrote to say she had always prayed I would have neighbors who would lead me to Christ. Though my commitment came much later, those early roots had already been planted.
Looking back, I can now see how time spent with my Gramma—her faith, her prayers, and her steady presence—helped form the spiritual foundation that continues to shape both my life and my Christian artwork today.

Foundations
As a new believer, I spent several years involved in Christian organizations that helped shape my walk with Jesus and deepen my understanding of faith. Bible Study Fellowship strengthened my understanding of God’s Word, while Aglow introduced me to believers whose love for Christ was both genuine and contagious.
I later became part of Calvary Castle Rock, a church connected to Pastor Chuck Smith’s ministry. Along with other Christian communities that influenced my journey, these experiences played a meaningful role in shaping my spiritual growth and continue to inform both my life and my Christian artwork today.
Living My Journey
As a Christian artist, I feel compelled to respond to the chaos of our world through meaningful, faith-based artwork that offers space for reflection, hope, and encounter. Many of my ideas emerge from Scripture, meaningful conversations, and the lives of people whose stories leave a lasting impression.
As I begin a painting, I carefully consider its message—how to communicate truth in a way that feels honest, engaging, and spiritually grounded. Research is central to my process, and I spend time studying Scripture, pursuing biblical accuracy, and seeking insight from those deeply rooted in the Christian faith.
Many things influence an artist, but for me, the depth of my work has grown alongside the deepening of my faith and my understanding of God’s presence within everyday life.
