When I could barely walk, my grandfather put a paintbrush in my hand and sat me on the floor of his studio. We sat in that studio for hours together, on top of his garage, with dim lighting and quiet oldies music and a view of deep green pine trees and the comforting smell of cool, Maine air mixed with acrylic-painted brushes dipped in glasses of multicolored water.

I continue to paint and sketch the outdoors around me, and transfer those designs to items that you can enjoy every day as a reminder of how beautiful our world is. The quotes, images, designs, and even packaging of my work reflect what is important to me: sustainability, exploring the world, and sharing beautiful words.
