MY LION
acrylics on canvas
24” x 48”
I painted this lion for my husband on our 20th wedding anniversary. It reflects who he is to our family: strength, protection, provision, and steady leadership. Twenty years in, he still captivates me.
LIVING WATER
acrylics on canvas
24” x 24”
Bold, bright colors and shapes outline the Hill Country with a spring flowing through the middle. This piece was inspired by the One who give us true life—Jesus. He is the living water that flows through everything and brings abundant life and color, and makes flowers grow.
LIFT YOUR EYES TO THE HILLS
acrylics on canvas
18” x 24”
Inspired by the Hill Country, this painting invites us to look beyond creation to the heavens, where our true hope and strength are found.
BIG APPLE SKYLINE
mixed media acrylics, linen, tissue paper, photography
60” x 48”
For this native Texan, a decade in New York became a creative home. From Queens and Jersey City to workdays in Manhattan, the city shaped me. I created this piece after returning to Texas—a tribute to a chapter I’ll always carry with me.
STARBURT SERIES
acrylics on canvas
36” x 36”
A few years ago, I discovered that "The Bright Morning Star" is actually the planet Venus. I was amazed to see it shining outside my window on winter mornings, and that moment inspired me to paint Jesus as the Bright Morning Star—radiant with life and light. Through color and beauty, I hoped to evoke the wonder and spiritual connection described in the Bible.
HEALING JOURNEY SERIES
acrylics on canvas
various sizes
In 2020, the pandemic brought pain and loss to many, including my own family. I witnessed the miraculous recovery of loved ones, though I know not everyone was as fortunate. Inspired by this contrast of suffering and healing, I created a series reflecting the journey toward restoration—beginning in darkness and fear, gradually moving toward light and renewal. Through it all, a greater presence—our Creator, symbolized in red—quietly walks with us. Even when unseen, His presence grows clearer as healing unfolds, reminding us we are never truly alone.
TEXAS BLUEBONNETS
acrylics on canvas
36” x 36”
It took leaving Texas to realize we don’t just live here—we wave it high, frame it, and plant it. So when my New York Italian grandfather, who made Texas home in the ’70s to build a better life for his family, asked for a painting of the flag and bluebonnets, I was happy to put that pride on canvas.
