What I know is that beauty is everywhere. That beauty worms its way into my heart and wants to come out expressed as something new–almost as if it has an agenda to make us Look! Notice beauty! Come see it in a new way! I simply am a public translator and storyteller of beauty.I am also called an illustrator, perched with my family in the stunning, hilly Lake Superior city, Duluth, Minnesota. I work with a range of small and big organizations, bookmakers, magazines, companies and people, creating art that comes alongside and makes messages bloom, as well as prints of my own to share. It is my hope that the art I create will connect us with beauty, which then connects us with gratitude and celebration. I'd love to get to know you, too–and have the opportunity to create together.
