Friends,
I’ve got some really special news to share—and my heart is full just typing this out.
My newest collection, From Pieces to Purpose, is officially live and debuting in The Scouted Studio’s Emerging Artist Show, happening now through April 17th, 2025! 🎉
This is a curated online exhibit that features up-and-coming artists from all across the country, and I’m honestly still in awe that I’ve been included. It means the world to be showing my work alongside so many incredibly talented creatives—and to be part of a platform that’s all about supporting and celebrating emerging voices in the art world.
So, what is an online art show?
Think of it like a gallery opening... but you don’t have to leave your couch. 😉
These shows are thoughtfully curated, just like traditional galleries, but they offer so much more reach and flexibility. You can explore the entire exhibit online—at your own pace, from wherever you are (coffee and cozy pajamas totally welcome).
If you’ve ever wanted to discover original, meaningful artwork—or bring something special into your home—this is a perfect place to start.
About From Pieces to Purpose
From Pieces to Purpose Collection
This collection began as a creative experiment. I gave myself permission to play—painting loosely on large sheets of paper, just following color, shape, and instinct. No plan. No pressure. Just freedom.
Then, something shifted. I started cutting those painted sheets into 4x4 squares, and arranging them on 10x10 canvases. The pieces began to form something intentional—something whole. I added hand-painted gold borders around each square, symbolizing transformation, celebration, and completion.
Suddenly, what began as play turned into purpose.
Why this series means so much to me
From Pieces to Purpose isn’t just a collection—it’s a reflection of what I believe deep down: that even the messy, uncertain, in-between parts of life can come together to create something meaningful and beautiful.
Every one of us has pieces—stories, experiences, heartbreaks, victories—that on their own may not make sense. But together? They tell a powerful story.
From Pieces to Purpose Collection
That’s what this collection is about. It's my way of creating with intention and offering something that might inspire others to reflect, to feel, and maybe even to grow.
As an artist, my hope is always to make work that resonates. That reminds people of who they are and encourages them to step into the best version of themselves. If even one piece from this collection does that for someone—it’s done its job.
