BIO
Part of corporate and residential art collections across the Midwest, this mid-career artist is know for her bright, bold abstract work as well nature inspired paintings for healthcare spaces.
Her strength lies in working directly with developers, architects and interior designers to create interiors that uplift and engage. Some colorful, modern installations stretch three stories high in downtown loft spaces, while other soft, subdued artwork promotes wellness in health facilities.
Modern artists and designers Mies Van der Rohe, Ellsworth Kelly, Helen Frankenthaler, Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso and Alexander Calder are her greatest influences. Her parents are her greatest inspiration.
