The Inspiration
There is no question that the human race loves and reacts viscerally to beauty. Whether
figuratively wishing for a beautiful life, or literally longing for beauty all around them...in their
gardens, their towns, and especially within themselves.
Throughout my collections, I hope that you find something or someone who speaks to you.
I hope that you feel inspired to bring life to your space.
To bring color to your palette. To improve your day, every day.
My love of vibrance and color first grew within me during my formal studies at the University of Miami.
The everyday experience bursts with culture and energy.
I then was fortunate enough to travel abroad and infiltrate my senses with so many new impressions.
Now I’m back in one of the most beautiful places on earth, the quintessential village of Chagrin Falls.
I am a direct result of my experiences and surroundings.
This is a reflection of my life; that which constantly strives to imitate art.

"Bonum Est Nos Malum"
My Mission
Art should make you happy.
It’s simple. People make way too much of it, or they make way too little of it. The purpose of art
is not to make you feel important, it’s also not meant to intimidate you. It’s probably the earliest
form of expression on earth, and it shouldn’t be contrived.
If anything here makes you smile, I hope that you’ll reach out. You may not even know what
you want, and that’s ok. A lot of people don’t. Whether you live locally or not, you can help me
to envision your space, and I will work with you to create a common goal.
I believe that coming home is a sacred act. It’s something we do everyday, that restores us, it
revives us, and it empowers us. Some require a calm environment, which I’m happy to explore.
Some seek color and inspiration, which of course I am all about.
We are hard workers, we are intellectuals, we are many things. But one thing is true for us all:
As humans, we seek comfort and freedom of expression in our own homes. I would love to
help you achieve that…to awaken your senses, or to calm them, whatever your need may be.
After all, Art should make you happy.
