I’ve reveled in the beauty of the outdoors since I was very young. I think there’s something in your blood when you’re born in “colorful Colorado.” Every chance I get, I want to capture the beauty of God’s creation around me. Made in His image, I believe we are all called to create!

“So many stories of where I’ve been and how I got to where I am, but these stories don’t mean anything when you’ve got no one to tell them to.”

I started painting using acrylics while living in the San Luis Valley in Alamosa, Colorado. I stated painting under the tutelage of Coni Grant in a rec center class in town. This grew from a fascination to a hobby to a mild obsession. I loved attempting to capture the beauty I see outside!
My mom, Terrie Jones, and my aunties introduced me to encaustic art. This is taking wax paint and melting it on a hot plate in order to create your pallet. Then you paint with the wax and a torch (basically I get to play with fire!). This medium has given me a whole different capacity to include texture and depth in my paintings. It’s my FAVORITE!
I love skiing, snowboarding, hiking and mountain biking which all feed into my love for mountains and the outdoors.
I’m an adaptive ski instructor in the winters and a doctor of physical therapy throughout the year working in Maryland and also occasionally abroad with the US Paralympic Alpine Ski and Snowboard Teams. 20% of all sales will go to an adaptive outdoors charity to make sure everyone can enjoy the great outdoors!
