Meet the artist

A wandering hedge artist.

I grew up in Sonoma County, California, exploring tidepools at Bodega Bay, naturalist camps, and the coast at Point Reyes. Early lessons in looking closely at the natural world have stayed with me.

I studied political science at UC Santa Barbara, but never stopped wandering, making things, and gathering small reminders of places I loved. Over the years, I collected handmade espresso cups and pottery while traveling, and studied and created bonsai.

Now those threads come together in watercolor and ink. Bonsai grow from cups found along the way. Wild landscapes become tiny worlds. Real places wander into imagined ones. There aren’t many rules.

Collected somewhere along the way.

Watercolor and ink originals become archival prints and illustrated stickers, small, story-filled things made to be kept or passed along.

The collection is growing. For now, orders are placed securely through our Etsy shop.
