I earned my Bachelor’s of Fine Arts in 2016 and enjoyed a brief stint of working at a design agency, a coffee shop, and a behavior analysis clinic before I started listening to what my heart was telling me - you should be painting and drawing. In 2020, I used the lockdown as an excuse to quit my job and spend my newfound limitless time to draw. While I have been drawing my whole life, I consider this the start of my professional career. My recent artwork has been largely focused on both public and private murals, as this large-scale painting feels like such a natural fit to bring audiences right into the magical worlds I create with my bright pastel color palettes, bold lettering, and colorful characters. I fell in love with the way a mural can encapsulate one’s vision, transporting them into another world. I have painted over 25 murals throughout central Iowa and cannot wait to keep covering Iowa and beyond in whimsy.
