I am a self-taught artist born and raised on Dena’ina lands (Alaska). As an intuitive practice, my hand painted stories aim to magnify kaleidoscopes of feeling within a single water droplet, wound, prayer, or moment in time. My maternal ancestry, with which I am most familiar, is Russian, Ukrainian, Belarusian, and Siberian. My paternal ancestry is English, Irish, and Scottish. I draw inspiration from ancestral folklore, my grandmother (a self-taught outsider artist herself), feminism, mental illness, and spiritual iconography. Click here to view original paintings.

I’m also a “retired” multi-disciplinary actor/performer, a trauma survivor, and a new mother. If life stories are your thing, The Alaska Current/Arts Anchorage published an article about my journey out of a cult-like upbringing in Alaska to Hollywood, then back again a decade later to a new creative life.

When I am not making art or tending to my family/menagerie, I am proud to work in service of The Nave, a hub for community, culture, and art in Anchorage, Alaska.
