When I was a teenager, my family moved to the United States. Throughout high school, I discovered my love for art. I pursued this love by studying fine arts at the University of Colorado, Boulder. For many years, I studied and practiced pencil drawing, and painting with oils, acrylics, and watercolors. This passion for art transitioned to making handmade jewelry and gnomes with custom embroidered hats. I started making things for myself, but soon those around me took notice. Many of my friends and family were interested in buying my creations, so I decided to open this online gallery. 

I am inspired everyday by those around me, especially my family. I am a single mom with two beautiful boys. My favorite part of my boys personalities is their creativity and sense of adventure. They are explorers and artists who leave a sparkle of happiness wherever they go. 

I am also inspired by nature and the beauty that goes with the lessons it teaches us.
