Only 4 days left before the current collection leaves the shop permanently.

This body of work holds so much of my transition as both an artist and a person - learning to soften, trust myself, and stop overworking emotion out of my paintings.

A reminder that most of my original pieces will be retired permanently after 5/31 as I prepare the shop for a new collection release.

This season of work represents such an important chapter in my journey as an artist, and I’m so grateful many of these pieces found homes with you. Thank you to those of you who have ordered this week!

TW: Sui**de

I was first drawn to her eyes. Stoic, but obviously carrying an invisible weight.

But the more I read about author Virginia Woolf’s story - her suffering and desperation, her struggles with mental illness, and finally her last writing - a sui**de note - the harder it became to separate the woman from the emotion I was painting.

This piece became less about likeness and more about the weight people carry invisibly. About brilliance and fragility existing in the same body. About how much can live beneath a composed expression.

I wanted the watercolor to move, breathe, and break apart in places, to feel human. Uncontrolled. Tender. Honest.

And here, she is.

Big changes are coming to the shop soon… and honestly, this post feels like the beginning of that shift. Read along and scroll through the newest art 🤍

Lately, my art has been teaching me how to let go.

For years, I thought growth meant more control — tighter details, cleaner technique, fewer mistakes.

And if I’m honest, I approached my life the same way.

After everything my health journey has taught me this past year, I’ve had to learn that not everything can be forced into certainty. Sometimes healing looks more like leaving space for adapting, softening, and trusting yourself through the unknown.

Watercolor has mirrored that lesson back to me.

I’ve been learning how to trust the pigment & water more. Isn’t that the quality of water? Adaptability and flow?

To leave space.

To stop overworking emotion out of a piece.

To hold onto my voice while letting go of control.

These recent portraits feel different to me — more expressive, more human, more honest.

Less about painting someone perfectly, and more about capturing what it feels like to exist as a human in raw emotion.

And maybe it’s fitting that all of this is happening during my birthday month — because this season feels less like complexity and more like returning to simplicity.

Because of that, big changes are coming to the art shop. I’m refining collections and retiring current work to make room for this next chapter. If there’s a piece you’ve connected with, they will only be available through 5/31 before they’re gone permanently - so now is the time to collect your favorite pieces.

This next season of my art feels clearer, freer, and more aligned than ever — and I can’t wait to share it with you.

As a nurse and artist living with disability and chronic illness, I think representation matters deeply - because the women we see in art shape the way we see ourselves.

I want my work to hold space for real women:

the ones healing,
sick,
aging,
changing,
surviving,
becoming.

Bodies are not trends.
They are evidence of a life being lived.

We live in these bodies, but we are so much more than these bodies.

And every one of them deserves to be seen with dignity, beauty, and care.

Not me turning my mom’s Mary Kay into a full portrait studio at age 9 😭

I used to draw women’s faces and use my mom’s makeup to “paint” them.

Meanwhile my mom was probably wondering why her makeup was disappearing at an alarming rate.👀

But honestly… same energy, different medium.

Still painting faces. Just slightly more… acceptable supplies now.

Anyone else accidentally train for their career as a kid??

Women are expected to measure our life by output. And I certainly did.

Fast pace. High capacity. Nurse executive.

Then it all came to a screeching halt when I sustained a brain injury that left me with debilitating chronic illness.

If you’ve ever had your life change that suddenly, you know, it’s not just what you lose, it’s the title… the role… the version of you people expected.

And you’re left asking… now what?

I kept coming back to something Jane Goodall said, “every day you matter… find your reason, and do your bit.”

Not because it’s grand or built on status.

But because her life was built on small, consistent acts… deep care for nature… and trusting that behind the scenes work still matters.

So what if your capacity changed?

I didn’t want to start this painting.
It’s the largest one I’ve ever done, and it felt like too much for me now. I was afraid of failing. (The old corporate mindset.)

But I kept coming back to it when I could.

And she slowly came to life-
bold hair, birds, flowers… grounded, a little wild, still taking up space.

That’s when it clicked.

My “bit” didn’t disappear. It just changed.

From nurse to artist, this is why I create- for women learning a new rhythm, building spaces that feel like an exhale instead of a demand. Often in the context of chronic illness that is always changing.

You don’t have to hold the same title to still matter.

Save this for the days you forget.

Or send it to someone who needs it today.

I’ve always said I’m solar-powered.

Soleia (so-LAY-ah), meaning sun & warmth, was created during a time when I had to rethink how I move through daily life. Living with chronic illness changed my relationship to energy, stress, and what it means to feel supported in my own body.

As this wearable art line developed, four guiding values began to shape each design:

☀️Softness — creating space for ease and restoration.
☀️Groundedness — feeling steady through changing rhythms.
☀️Groove — reconnecting with movement, creativity, and personal flow.
☀️Connectedness — recognizing the shared human experiences that link us.

Soleia translates the fluid movement and layered color of my watercolor art into pieces designed for real bodies and real routines — an inclusive and accessible way to bring art closer to everyday experience.

Through May 31, a portion of Soleia proceeds will support selected mental health organizations, with you invited to choose the cause your purchase benefits at checkout.

Art to live in.
