From Ballet to Brush

Thank you for visiting my website!

I have been enchanted by art - and especially watercolor - since childhood. I studied commercial art in college, but my career ultimately led me to another creative passion: ballet and dance. After dancing and performing in my younger years, I became a certified ballet teacher with the Royal Academy of Dance in London, England. For the past 30 years, I have had the privilege of sharing this beautiful art form with students of all ages.

Teaching ballet has been a deeply fulfilling career, but I never lost my love for watercolor. In 2021, I felt drawn to pick up my brushes once again - and discovered how much I had missed painting.

Today, I find joy in watching watercolor pigments flow, mingle, and move across the paper. Perhaps it is no surprise that, after a life devoted to dance, I am drawn to a medium with a movement all its own. Each painting is shaped by the beauty I notice, the memories I treasure, and the emotions and experiences I hope to share through color and delicate brushwork.

The Journey Continues

I look forward to sharing each new painting as it emerges from my brush. Whether you are here to explore my artwork, learn more about my creative journey, or find inspiration for a path of your own, I hope you discover something that speaks to you.

Thank you for your interest in my work and for joining me on this continuing journey. I am delighted to share it with you.
