I have been painting flowers for over thirty years, choosing them as my subject as early as middle school. What began as an early fascination has grown into a lifelong exploration of a subject that continues to offer endless inspiration. I am continually drawn to the beauty, movement, and individuality of flowers, and to the idea that one subject can be interpreted in so many different ways. I find great joy in revisiting familiar blooms, discovering new details, and allowing each painting to take on a personality of its own. The dogwood holds a particularly special place in this collection. A familiar and beloved symbol of spring throughout the American South, dogwoods represent new beginnings, rebirth, resurrection, purity, and endurance. There is something meaningful about their return each year, emerging after winter as a reminder of renewal and the quiet strength found in nature. Dogwood Confetti celebrates the joyful, almost whimsical nature of these blooms. I envision the dogwoods dancing across bold, luminous washes of color, creating a confetti-like quality that feels spontaneous, organic, and light as a feather. Expressive marks, unexpected layers, and playful compositions bring a sense of movement and celebration to each piece. I wanted the collection to feel fresh and spirited, capturing the fleeting beauty and energy while embracing the freedom of color and gesture. Yet, beneath the playful energy of the collection, the deeper symbolism of the dogwood keeps each piece grounded. There is a lovely balance between the lightness of the imagery and the depth of its meaning—a celebration of renewal, resilience, and the enduring beauty of nature. The result is a collection that feels both spirited and thoughtful, delicate and enduring.

I grew up noticing the small, beautiful treasures in my life. As a young girl, I took notice when my mom received a vase or fine china at Christmas from my grandparents. I spent a ridiculous amount of time carefully arranging precious, sparkly objects in her china cabinet; adjusting Swarovski crystal animals that captured the light and painted rainbows across the room. I was captivated by the timeless elegance of Wedgwood china, crystal, and the delicate, romantic Lladró sculptures that stood proudly on each shelf. To me, it was all pure magic. I loved visiting my great-grandmother’s home in Wisconsin — touching the fine silk fabrics on her furniture, admiring the mother-of-pearl chinoiserie coffee table, and watching her drink from the most beautiful teacups I had ever seen. The women in my family gifted and collected shiny objects, and I wanted to be in the club. As I slowly grew into adulthood, I found myself wanting to collect and gift all of the things I had admired growing up. I love giving small, vintage Wedgwood pieces to my mom and sisters, and find so much joy in the hunt for beautifully crafted objects. This collection grew from a deep dive into Wedgwood Jasperware and my love of Claude Monet’s work. Monet’s continual study of the Seine River inspired me to revisit the same scene repeatedly, each time finding something new in a familiar view. At the same time, I experimented with and combined Wedgwood’s iconic motifs; capturing all the beauty and ornamentation of that timeless pottery house in my own work. I love this collection deeply. It is strong yet feminine, precise yet hazy; everything I love about design and artistry, rolled into one showstopping body of work.
