“Rising” portrays a powerful, confident, and hopeful female figure who will ultimately emerge victorious. She embodies the resistance, rising from the ongoing struggle to reclaim and defend human rights for all.

Recently, someone asked me, “Do you paint every day?”

It made me pause and reflect. The honest answer is: no, I don't paint every single day. But I do engage with my art daily, in one form or another.

I just accomplished something huge—I spoke in front of the largest audience I’ve ever faced! On a stage. With a microphone. Behind a podium. Under blinding lights.

Come see me at two spring artist markets just in time for Mother’s Day shopping!
