WELCOME!
Guided by my faith in Jesus Christ, I paint from Scripture—translating God’s truth, grace, and compassion into oil on canvas. My desire is to serve those who seek artwork that magnifies His glory and nurtures 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 on 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 work today.
She now works exclusively in oils, creating pieces that blend realism with impressionistic nuance. While portraits and the human figure remain her primary focus, she occasionally explores landscapes and florals for creative renewal.
Moments with Gramma
My story began in Valley City, North Dakota where my grandparents were very instrumental in me becoming a Christian. Early mornings I awoke to catch Gramma praying for her grandchildren, me. Precious visits.
After a neighbor prayed with me to accept the Lord when I was thirty, Gramma wrote back saying she always prayed I would have neighbors who would bring me to the Lord.
Those early roots began my connection to Jesus, even though I did not commit until years later. I realize now how my early years with gramma helped form the basis for my art today.
Foundations
As a new believer, I spent several years involved in Christian organizations that helped shape my walk with Jesus. Bible Study Fellowship deepened my understanding of God’s Word, and Aglow introduced me to believers whose passion for Jesus was contagious.
I eventually became part of a church connected to Pastor Chuck Smith’s ministry, Calvary Castle Rock.
Though I was involved in other groups as well, these were the ones that most profoundly influenced my spiritual growth.
Living My Journey
As a Christian artist, I feel compelled to respond to the chaos of our world, and each painting becomes a chance to share my heart.
My ideas often spring from Scripture, meaningful conversations, and encounters with interesting people.
As I begin a piece, I consider its message—how to express it in a way that feels fresh, positive, and uplifting.
Research is central to my process, and I spend time ensuring biblical accuracy and seeking insight from those well-versed in Scripture.
Many things influence an artist, but for me, the depth of my work has grown alongside the deepening of my faith.
