about the art
Almost all of my paintings are inspired by nature, music or movies. Florals and landscapes are what I like to spend most of my time on because they just fill me to the top with joy. I’m pretty terrible at naming paintings, so most of the time I name them whatever song I was listening to while painting. I work almost exclusively with oil and I love to pair my work with antique paintings. Most of the time, it doesn’t feel complete until it’s been framed. I’ve also received some feedback that it’s preferred that way, because once you receive your order, it’s ready to hang/place and you don’t have to go through the hassle of finding a frame. I paint almost every single day. Some of it will make its way to my shop, and some will stay with me. A few find their way to the trash can, but as long as I expel some creativity, I consider it a win. My goal is to sell work to every state in the U.S. so I’ve got a little list going below :)

the inspiration
I’m often inspired by nature, songs, music and movies. If the name of a painting doesn’t make sense to you, it’s probably because I named it after the song I listened to on repeat while painting it. Some of my favorite works have been inspired by Outlander, Noah Kahan and Little Women. Cute little cottagecore critters are my weakness as well.
all about the products
Varnish
All glassless paintings are coated with a layer of varnish to preserve them from the elements.
Packaged With Love
Your orders are packaged safely, beautifully and quickly within 2 weeks of purchase unless otherwise specified.
Fine Art Prints
Depending on a few different factors, not all paintings are available in art prints. I try to offer them as often as possible to add availabilities for all budgets.
Antique Frames
Each frame is intentionally paired with a painting and is acquired from my local antique stores. Antique frames have some imperfections due to their age, but I really believe those imperfections add character to the overall piece.
Oil Paints
Oil paints were made for the patient (or those trying to be). They take weeks to dry, so sometimes you’ll see that a listing mentions a delay in shipping due to dry time.
Glass
Whenever possible, I use antireflective glass in my frames.

Oil takes time to dry. I try my best to post paintings when they’re completely done and available to ship, but I’m only human. Sometimes I get too excited and want to share early.
-
Probably 90% of my frames are antiques that I source from a local antique shop!

I certainly do! Send me a message explaining your idea and I’ll get back to you about whether or not it’s a project I’m comfortable taking on.
