“The creative personality never remains fixed on the first world it discovers. It never resigns itself to anything.” - Anais Nin
“Of all the arts, abstract painting is the most difficult. It demands that you know how to draw well, that you have a heightened sensitivity for composition and for color, and that you be a true poet. This last is essential.”
Wassily Kandinsky

After graduating, she continued to paint, write, and incubate her imagination in Savannah, Georgia. In 2021, she met fellow painter Chris Fisher. In 2023, she and Fisher moved to Asheville, North Carolina, with her two dogs, three cats, three easels, and seven typewriters. They look forward to the adventures to come.
