So many things inspire me such as bright colors, emotions, the natural world, and my child. I’m really connected to telling the story of reclaiming the autonomy of my own body, body image and healing generational trauma through art. In this environment of capitalism and repression, we view nudity as either pornographic or a function of sexual gaze; when in fact it is just our natural state of eroticism and sensuality that flows into all the creative parts of our lives, including motherhood and nature.

I’m an outdoorsy kind of gal. I love to hike, explore new places, and be in the water. I’m super spontaneous so I’m always down for last minute trips or watching a sunset, just getting out in the world and seeing it all. I love trying new food, whether that means cooking with friends or going out to dinner at a restaurant. Also, I’m a big reader and I enjoy scribbling stories in my journals.
Caravan Art Bazaar’s ART 4 AID program uses art for good by donating a percent of sales from artwork by participating artists to various grassroots mutual aid programs near and far.
To date, CAB has helped raise over $14,000 in funds for Hurricane Helene disaster relief in North Carolina, rainforest conservation in Peru and Sumatra, community land stewardship near Cherokee, affordable housing in Swannanoa NC, community art experiences in Asheville, cultural preservation in Vietnam, and more!
