About

This site is for people who still believe in making things slowly. You'll find daily sketches and paintings, original prints, books, and the occasional essay about what it means to keep a creative practice when the world keeps telling you to optimize it. If that sounds like your kind of place, you're welcome here.

I grew up in Michigan, which means I have strong opinions about winters, coffee, and the value of making things with your hands.

That last one turned out to matter most.

I’ve been a maker my whole life. First as a graphic designer, then as a web designer, and somewhere along the way, as a painter, printmaker, calligrapher, author, and speaker who still can’t quite believe that’s a sentence she gets to write about herself.

These days I live in Thomasville, Georgia with two cats, a dog named Indy, a growing collection of art supplies, and a Moka pot that gets more use than it probably should. 

Every day I make something by hand. Most mornings that means a sketch or painting, whether in the sketchbook I always have with me or on one of the easels I always have set up. I also do linocut printing and hand lettering, because apparently one analog obsession is never enough.
