Hi Friend, Welcome to My Little Corner of the Coast
Hi friend, and welcome. I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m an artist, photographer, and lifelong creative living along Florida’s beautiful Emerald Coast. I earned my Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the University of South Alabama, but honestly, art started long before college for me. I’ve been painting and drawing for over 40 years and working professionally in photography for more than 15.
My work is deeply inspired by the coast — the soft colors, salt air, weathered textures, sea oats, old beach towns, and those quiet little moments people never want to forget after vacation ends.
Over the years, I’ve worked as a family photographer along 30A, Destin, Santa Rosa Beach, Seaside, Rosemary Beach, and surrounding areas, helping families preserve memories of the places they love most. That background shaped the way I create art today. I pay attention to emotion, light, detail, and storytelling — whether I’m holding a camera or a paintbrush.
Many of my pieces begin with places I’ve personally explored, photographed, sketched, or fallen in love with while living here on the coast.
I create artwork for people who want their homes to feel warm, peaceful, coastal, and personal — not mass produced. Whether you’re decorating a beach house, remembering a favorite vacation, or simply bringing a little coastal calm into everyday life, I hope you find something here that feels like home.
Thank you so much for supporting handmade art and small businesses. It truly means more than you know.
