My story starts with art, a girl, and rocks...
I've always known that I can draw but never knew that I was a successful painter until my early thirties. My partner is a talented artist and I always admired her skills. As I tried to find more artistic outlets for her, she encouraged my artistic talent to take form. What started as an idea that collecting free rocks from the beach shores in Lake Erie to paint as a hobby, quickly turned in to a booming part time gig. Every rock tells a unique story and just begs to be painted. Painting brings me joy and I choose to paint to bring joy to the world through my paintings.

My Process
I like to make work that is timely and shares commentary about our society. As a music buff, a lot of my work focuses on music pop culture. I am more than happy to create a special item for you, please contact me if interested in custom orders!
Sourcing
Everything begins with sourcing the perfect rock. This may seem easy, but shape, size, and smoothness of the rock all matter.
Painting
My process involves acrylic paint.
I use source imagery and sketch straight on the chosen rock. Surfaces consist of many layers of paint.
Finishing
All rocks go through a process to ensure proper sealing. Each rock is perfect to use inside or outside. Contact me for more questions about care for rocks.
Shop, follow, contact
The best way to purchase ready to ship rocks is currently through my Etsy store. Looking to see what I have made in the past or working on now, follow me on Instragram.
