About Journey

I am primarily an illustrative portrait artist, specializing in watercolor, gouache, ink, and more recently, oil pastel and acrylic. I’ve loved art and painting for as long as I can remember, and have always dreamed of becoming a professional artist in some form or another.

I have a bachelor’s degree in fine art, and I share my home studio with 4 cats, a snapping turtle, some fish, frogs, and supportive husband in central Pennsylvania.

In September 2024, I joined forces with 4 other talented, creative women as a collaborator and co-owner at Creative Spark Arts in New Cumberland, PA. We specialize in teaching workshops based on our various areas of expertise, and it continues to be one of the most fulfilling partnerships I could have imagined. We are always coming up with new and exciting ways to bring art to the community, from free craft swaps to collaborative classes. I am grateful to be able to share my love and passion for painting with everyone who stops in or signs up for a class.
