Artistry At It's Finest
All fine art starts with a brush :) Through countless hours of training and studying, I have crafted my passion. I would be honored to share my experiences with you and help make your day even more unforgettable.
Doing My Part
I use the highest quality products that are free of animal testing as well as ingredients such as collagen, gelatin, albumen, etc. When I'm not working, I lend my services to local underserved youth and young adults in efforts to expose them to the extension of the professional career field as a Creative . Doing my part means supporting my community and protecting our animals and the environment.
