All modesty aside — yesterday’s artist reception at the Firehouse Arts Center was an absolute blast! 🎉 From welcoming friends and neighbors from across the Bay Area to celebrating three painting sales with ice cream, it was a day to remember.

A glowing neighborhood tradition, a child awed by giant holiday ornaments, and a touch of winter magic. Here is the story behind "A Touch of Wonder," the third painting in my Childhood Memories series.

Capturing a fleeting childhood memory through simple watercolor layers. Read the heartwarming story behind my new piece, Paused In Time.

Sun-drenched days, sweet grapes, and the gentle hum of summer evenings. Here is a look at my fresh-off-the-easel watercolor painting, captured with my new favorite professional palette.

It’s all about delicious food! I’m proud to share that my paintings will be featured in the Let’s Eat fine-art exhibition this summer. Check out the full post for dates, location, and gallery hours.

Something exciting is coming! I’m thrilled to share an early look at my upcoming solo exhibition at the Firehouse Arts Center in Pleasanton.

Sometimes watercolor has a mind of its own, and you just need a do-over. Join me as I recreate a deeply personal story from scratch on a larger sheet, talk about art-procrastination, and capture a precious childhood memory.

My last weekend was very productive: two studio sessions and one plein air sketching. Believe me, this is a lot for a working mom of a 6-year-old. My art tends to take a sinusoidal path…

Today I realized that it was not a lack of self-discipline but, in fact, a brilliant idea to leave my bag with sketching supplies lying around in my car!

My art journey has never been consistent or monotonous — it’s a never-ending search and exploration. I seize every chance to try a new technique or medium, whether it’s a multilayered collage, Japanese calligraphy, or soft pastels. Should I have focused on honing one specific style instead? Probably!

Hi everyone, and welcome! I am incredibly excited to finally open the virtual doors to my brand-new website and blog.

For a long time, I’ve been hosting my daily work on different public platforms and social media. But I felt it was time to build a dedicated, quiet space that reflects where I am today as an artist.
