About Me/ Artist Statement

About Me: If I had to describe my self in a few words I'd have to say "I am a head strong, easy-going, girlie tom-boy". I'm the mother to a beautiful 9year old son, Damien who is the coolest and most creative child ever, he motivates me everyday . I love art! Unfortunately I don't create it as much I would like to, outside of school projects. It is an immediate goal of mine to incorporate personal art making to my daily routine. I am an Art Education major with a strong passion for working with children and teaching art. I plan to seek employment near Ann Arbor MI teaching k-6 upon graduation.  I regularly volunteer for the Art Commissions of Toledo, demonstrating hands-on art demos for kids. I also do some freelance photography. My ultimate future achievement would be to open my own coffee shop/ personal art gallery in Northern MI seasonally, or Colorado....where ever life takes me . I am 28 and from Toledo, I currently live in Lambertville MI.

Artist Statement: Animal skulls and female nudes, vintage photography and vividly colored ink splatter. These are a few things that help describe my work and artistic interest.
