I'm a telemark skier, backpacker, trail runner, and animal lover. Playing outside is where I'm happiest, and my creativity soars in sunshine. Long before I studied art in the mountains of Aix-en-Provence, France, I fell madly in love with painting in nature. As a mother of two young girls, my joyous return to plein air is heightened by the opportunity to share the value of the arts and the beauty of the outdoors with my growing family. When I hike my easel around the trails near our home in Boulder and beyond, I quickly work to capture the little story in the scenes I discover. I'm lucky to call this stunning location home, and feel compelled to share the light and curves of this amazing place with eyes near and far. Please join me to learn more about my process, and see how I paint outdoors year-round!
