Creating and teaching art makes me happy. I find joy when I paint with gentle watercolors or with thick acrylics and vibrant colors. I love sharing this joy with others and inspiring people to try art, because I believe with all my heart that...“Everyone is an artist—maybe you just haven’t found your medium yet.”
I offer weekly kids art classes and monthly adult art classes from my home studio in Holladay, Utah.
My Art Journey
My painting journey began in 2000 while living on a Kibbutz in Northern Israel. I picked up a small watercolor set to take on archaeology trips, hoping to capture the landscapes around me. That simple choice grew into a twenty-year love of painting small watercolors.
When Covid hit and the world went into lockdown, everything changed. I ran to Michaels, bought giant canvases and thick paint, and began creating vibrant landscapes and abstract pieces in my sunny home studio here in Holladay. Around that same time, I started teaching weekly art classes out of my home—and it quickly became the highlight of my week.
As the world navigated the heaviness of Covid, my students and I found joy, laughter, and community through creating art and sharing it at local craft fairs and coffee shops.
A Note From Me
I hope you enjoy my paintings as much as I enjoyed creating them.
