I am a fine artist at heart who looks at the world in shapes, colors and textures. My creativity is inspired by nature and music allowing rhymes, stories, colors and patterns to come out and play. My hope as an artist is to inspire others to look at the world around us with a new set of eyes, see our everyday surroundings in ways that we never imagined before and get lost in the magic for a little while.

This hand-illustrated piece, inspired by the lyrics in “Brokedown Palace” (Grateful Dead), was created using only Sharpie markers.
