I am a spiritual watercolor artist, mental health counselor, writer, and mama of two. In 2022, my son, Hudson, passed away suddenly and tragically. I was completely shattered; the world I once knew was flipped upside down in an instant. Shortly after his passing, I began experiencing a series of mystical occurrences, including receiving unmistakable signs from Hudson. These signs sparked an insatiable curiosity to dive deeper into my own spirituality and to learn more about life after death.

About a month into my grief journey, I decided to explore additional avenues for helping myself to heal. One day, I had this strong sense that I was supposed to dig out my old watercolor kit and start painting. I had taken a 4-week watercolor class in college and still had the set, stored away in the basement. As soon as I got up to walk downstairs, I received an immediate sign from Hudson! It felt like pure magic. I knew I was headed in the right direction, so I got my paints out and started practicing. As the pigment and water connected with the paper, I felt all my emotions pour out of me. And then I felt relief. I felt peace.

When I paint, I enter a state of flow, where time melts away and I am completely absorbed in the moment. Watercolor is my meditative practice. It helps me to connect with God and higher states of consciousness. I translate what I intuitively perceive in this flow state onto the paper. I believe art has the capacity to hold positive vibrations and energy, and to heal. All the art that I create, I co-create with the energy of the Divine, with love, peace, and joy. When a piece of artwork is purchased, I pray over it with blessings for the recipient.

The goal of my artwork is to you give you, the viewer, an experience of total, utter peace and relaxation; “the peace that surpasses all understanding” (Philippians 4:7). These paintings are reminiscent of the blissful, sweet moments in life that are meant to be savored on Earth, and the transcendent love of God that comes from Heaven. Through the use of soothing colors and nature-inspired imagery, my creations are meant to reset your mind, body, and spirit to experience instant calm and contentment.  

In loving memory of Hudson, and with a heartfelt desire to spread more love and abundance, a portion of the profits from my artwork is donated to Children’s Hospital of Minnesota and Ronald McDonald House Charities.
