Born and raised in Woonsocket, Rhode Island, I am a self-taught artist.  In 2012, I was commissioned for my first painting and it pointed me in the direction of freelancing as an artist. I have also worked as a set painter and scenic artist in community theatre and television and film set painting.

​

While my main focus is on customized pet portraits, I don't like to box myself in. If you have a project in mind, I'd love to connect and see if we can collaborate. I am now also available for mural commissions anywhere in the lower 48 states of the U.S.

​

Then THERE'S DISC GOLF. 

​

How did you get into disc golf? Introduced by one of my best friends (Jbo) in Los Angeles. Chavez Ridge, in Elysian Park, was the first course I ever played! The 18th hole looks into the Dodgers stadium. It was beautiful. Between the competitive aspect, the friends, and nature I was instantly hooked! When I moved home in 2016, to take care of my grandmother, I found what would become my home course right down the road. Dacey Fields.

 

How did you get started with art? Since I was a kid I have always been into drawing and art. My grandmother encouraged me to pursue my passion in the arts. With the support from my family and friends I worked hard to teach myself everything I could about art and painting. I taught myself through books and YouTube, consuming everything I could find.

 

How has the disc golf community impacted your life/art? I was inspired by the stamp art I saw on discs to get more into drawing and learning more about the digital mediums for art design. When I was approached to create stamp designs for local tournaments I realized it was something I really wanted to do more of. Since then I have been able to continue to work on more and more local tournament stamps. Being able to combine my love of disc golf and art professionally is something I am so grateful for.

 

How I experience art is what inspires me to create it. I know how art makes me feel and I want to be able to share that feeling and experience with other people through creating my own art. The family I have gained through the sport of disc golf has supported and inspired me in so many ways. It has given me a direction for my passion and a feeling of purpose in my creation. The support of the disc golf community has been overwhelming and continues to fuel my desire to give back to them through my art.
