Welcome to My Creative Corner!
Hi there! I’m so glad you’re here. My journey as a creator is deeply rooted in the sunny landscapes of Southern California. Born in beautiful La Jolla, I spent my early childhood breathing in the salt air of Pacific Beach. When I was ten, my family moved inland to Temecula—back when it was still known as Ranch California, a place of wide-open spaces, dirt roads, and endless inspiration.
Art has been the steady thread running through my entire life. Growing up, I could always be found with a paintbrush or sketchpad in hand. That passion was nurtured early on by my artistic mom and diy build anything dad as well as through summer camps and scholarships with the Temecula Art League, which allowed me to truly find my creative voice.
Life eventually led me down a different path for a while, and I built a rewarding career in the medical field. For years, my primary focus was working hard and raising my two amazing children as a single mom. But art has a way of calling you back home. I started right where I was—opening up my own home studio to teach art classes to the neighborhood kids. Seeing their faces light up with creativity sparked a brand-new chapter for me. That local porch-studio eventually grew into teaching art classes at our local community center and bringing the joy of painting to residents at nearby retirement communities.
Today, I am absolutely thrilled to have this digital space to call my own. This website is a true reflection of everything I love. It’s a joyful mix of my own hand-painted artwork, a curated collection of unique vintage and retro finds that tell a story, and festive holiday decor to make your spaces feel like home.
Thank you for stopping by and supporting my passion. Whether you're here for a piece of nostalgia or a brand-new work of art, I hope it brings a little bit of sunshine into your day! God Bless.
