A true artist is not one who is inspired but one who inspires others.
—Salvador Dalí
As a visual artist with a decade of experience in both mixed media and encaustic paintings, my passion lies in artistic expression. Over the years, I have expanded my expertise to include interior design and lifestyle design services, but I am first and foremost an artist. It would be a great honor to create a bespoke piece of art for your space, but I want you to know that you need not limit yourself to my own artwork. As a result of my artistic path, I have built strong connections and have access to a roster of fine artists, artisans, muralists and art galleries. I would like to humbly offer you access to this magnificent world and provide you with expert art advice and art procurement services. I am more than delighted to commission or curate the perfect piece that aligns flawlessly with your space and personal taste or source handcrafted, one-of-a-kind elements, embracing the artistry and uniqueness of handmade items to instill a sense of luxury, beauty, and transformation for your space. Send me a message, and let's begin this creative journey together.

The Power of Art: Enhancing Spaces, Inspiring Minds, and Creating Lasting Impressions
Artwork can be one of the most important components of a room and can often make or break a space. It enhances the visual appeal of the environment and can bring together different elements, by providing a focal point and color inspiration. Art can introduce balance, harmony and character, and is an excellent conversation starter. It has the power to create a unique atmosphere within a space, evoking specific emotions and setting a particular mood. It encourages self-reflection and introspection, providing the opportunity to explore thoughts and feelings.
Art stimulates creativity and imagination, inspiring individuals to think outside the box and come up with innovative ideas. It also promotes cultural diversity by showcasing artwork from various cultures and artists, fostering a greater understanding and appreciation of different traditions. Additionally, art has a lasting impact, leaving a memorable impression on visitors that lingers with them even after they leave the space.
Another aspect are the benefits of engaging in artistic activities. Making art offers a fantastic way of self-expression, emotional release, skill development, stress relief, self-discovery, confidence building, communication, and a sense of joy and fulfillment. It allows individuals to express themselves creatively and experience happiness through the creative process.
One of my personal favorite benefits of art (besides the obvious points above), is art trips that center around visiting art galleries and museums. The inspirational and rejuvenating power of immersing yourself in beauty like that, has an indescribable effect (Bonus points if you pair it with a good out-of-town concert and a few wonderful restaurants).
