Grace has never been a straight line for me—it has been a layered, evolving process. Over the past four decades, I’ve explored a range of creative paths, from commercial real estate and marketing to makeup artistry and fashion styling, all in search of a space that felt entirely my own. I studied Studio Art and Fashion Merchandising at The University of Akron, an experience that continues to inform my visual language and discipline.

I once believed I would find fulfillment creating within the framework of something established—either for others or through my own, well-defined business. In many ways, I did. And in many ways, I didn’t. It now resonates deeply that the paths which never came to fruition may have been a form of protection—guiding me precisely to where I am now.

It is through seasons of growth, success, and failure that I’ve arrived here—creating work that is deeply personal, intuitive, and unfiltered. My process is guided by early-morning reflections, journaling, music, fashion, and film, with a sensitivity to synchronicity.

In addition to painting, I curate spaces that not only reflect a client’s desires but also expand their eye through fresh takes and reconsidered interpretations of how an interior space can grow. This is an area of my practice that I will be growing in 2026.

A part of my process is creating a mixtape with each collection and project—an extension of the mood and soul that helps me visualize ideas—and a great keepsake for the creative moments during that time.

Thank you for being here.
