About Me

I'm a Florida based painter with a specialty in watercolors. Since sketching dinosaurs with my grandfather when I was a little girl, I've always had a love of art. I officially started professional work when I graduated with an Art degree at Coastal Carolina University 15 years ago. When I lived in Pennsylvania, my work was hung in the Philadelphia mayor's office and auctioned in the Philadelphia Phillies annual charity events. Since then my subject matters have changed from portraits to landscapes, but I've always had a love of vibrant colors that propel life off the page!

Watercolor is always a fun partner as it likes to do its own thing sometimes, but I find the medium perfect for capturing the beautiful images I love to paint. I continue to work on new techniques to bring even more out of my paintings, including incorporating gouache, ink, and extra textures. Thank you for stopping by and checking out my work!

Make Sure These Moments Last a Lifetime!

Live Painting is an unforgettable experience where I will come to your event and complete a painting for you while the event is ongoing! There are several choices for this commission but in general, I will set up before your event with my supplies in a spot you delegate and paint a piece while guests are free to interact and ask questions. 

The choice is yours

I provide a number of options, from smaller paintings that I start and finish at the event location (perhaps for a raffle at the end of the event) to larger pieces where I will take reference photos of the ceremony, create the foundation of the painting during the event, and complete the finished painting for an everlasting memory. 

Frequently Asked Questions

How much will this cost?

The cost can range anywhere between $500-$2000 depending on painting size, painting detail, and travel required. We will go over everything during our free consultation. I will send you a complete price quote with all expenses included.

How far do you travel?

Everywhere in the US! Travel expenses will be included in the price. I'm currently located in the Tampa Bay area so it makes traveling in Florida easier but I will make arrangements if you'd like me to be at your event!

Do you only do weddings?

Nope! I will do everything from Baby Showers to Charity Galas to Graduation Parties. My only requirement is that the event be at least 3 hours long and I have a 6"x6" space to set up my easel.

Can I choose which photo you will paint?

Yes! You can be as hands off or hands on as you'd like. I've had some pick the specific moment or photo and some allow me to take the references and get creative. I've also done anything from landscapes to portraits, so it's your choice what you'd like for your event.

Do you provide the frame?

No, but my paintings are all sized to fit standard frames. If you would like, I can also add a frame into the quoted price, so it can be ready to hang as soon as you receive it.

Do you require a deposit?

Yes. Consultation is free but a $100 deposit will be required to book a spot on my calendar. All expenses must be paid 30 days before the event so I can properly prepare for travel.
