i strive to live mindfully, to seek beauty in the everyday, and hope to make art a way of being for myself.  by sharing my words and photos in this space, i hope to inspire you to do the same.

i love:
words, photographs, paints, colored pencils, paper, canvas, fabric, wood

hiking, yoga

chocolate, avocado, watermelon, warm bread out of the oven, cilantro, sushi

people {especially kids}

mountains, rivers, lakes, oceans, trees, flowers

carving out time to explore life creatively

daydreaming

i also love hearing from you.

and thank you.
