Living in the hills of western Massachusetts, I am endlessly inspired by the fairytale-like forests and creatures that surround me. My work begins with these real-world elements—rolling hills, misty forests, and the animals that inhabit them—but it doesn’t end there. In my paintings, I capture the beauty and quiet magic of this environment. From there, my illustrations allow my imagination to take over, transforming these natural forms into whimsical narratives where reality and fantasy intertwine.
I see my art as a bridge between the tangible world and the stories we carry inside. By blending the observed with the imagined, I create spaces where the familiar becomes enchanted, where landscapes breathe and animals whisper untold tales. My work is an invitation to step into this world, to see the extraordinary in the everyday, and to experience the natural world with wonder and curiosity.
