Hi, I’m Angela

My love for art began earlier than I can even remember. In first grade, I confidently proclaimed I wanted to be an ARTIST when I grew up. I suppose I’m still working toward that goal, though I’m not so sure about the growing up part.

I grew up in the Midwest countryside surrounded by forests and farmland, where I spent countless hours outdoors with a sketchbook in hand. Nature became my first and most constant source of inspiration finding the way light moves through trees, the textures of bark and water, the quiet layers of detail that reveal themselves when you slow down enough to notice. It’s still where I feel most at home.

For the past 18 years, I’ve worked as an interior designer, shaping spaces in a three-dimensional way and thinking deeply about how people experience their surroundings. That perspective naturally carries into my art. My work often explores layers, depth, and shifting perspective, sometimes reaching beyond the edges of the frame as if the artwork itself cannot quite be contained, much like nature in all its wildness.

I work primarily in watercolor, drawn to the delicate balance between control and flow. The medium has a life of its own, and I love allowing that dialogue to unfold on the paper. At the same time, curiosity keeps me experimenting with new materials and techniques, always exploring where the creative process might lead next.

Outside of the studio, I share my life with my husband, our two kids, and our two dogs, Suki and Kit, who keep things lively. Music has always been another creative thread in my life. I grew up playing piano and have been playing the ukulele for the past seven years. I’m an avid reader, a devoted coffee lover, and happiest when I’m sitting with a sketchbook, a good book, and a fresh cup of coffee nearby.

At the end of the day, I’m simply trying to live my best and most creative life — staying curious, making things with my hands, and sharing the beauty and calm I experience in nature through my work. I hope to leave a little more in this world than I take, offering small moments of pause, connection, and wonder along the way.
