personalized limited editions #/25
personalize your artwork
Most images are available as limited editions, and are usually capped at 25. You choose a word, name, quote, photo, just about anything, and I will embed it into the artwork in a way that doesn't alter the integrity of the piece. There are only 25 pieces for each work of art made into personalized limited editions. You decide the size. Limited Editions are signed, dated, numbered and accompanied by a certificate with a description of the embedded image and its location within the artwork.

Art Story Walls
Choose any number of pieces and I will design a wall that shares your favorite stories
Background
- Having always loved drawing and creating fantastical images I learned at an early age that I could hustle my artwork for goods my parents wouldn't spring for; school lunches, a new magic set, etc. At 18, I found my way to Parsons School of Design in New York City, loved every single moment, and finally opened my very own art and design biz. Since then I have had the opportunity to work on incredibly exciting projects from humble abodes to large corporations and public art.
Medium
- My medium...Basically anything that will fit into my purse; a handful of thin black architectural pens and a sketchbook, sharpies, acrylic paint pens and my iPhone for impromptu photo shoots. I love adding layers of photography and digital color to my drawings and printing my final pieces of art onto metal, canvas, apparel, home goods...you name it! I call these creations, Portrait Stories. I am hugely inspired by murals, graffiti, folk, primitive and outsider art! Most of my artwork on exhibit is mixed media digital collages (layers of hand drawing, photography and digital color) printed on metal and other cool stuff.
Why Create For The People?
- Navigating the intricate balance of family, career, health, and community care often feels like dancing through life's complexities. Amidst the countless causes championed by nonprofits, deciding where to focus can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. So when I named my art and design venture "Create For The People," it wasn't just about words on paper; it was a reflection of my deepest passions and aspirations. I've found immense joy in weaving together my love for art with a desire to make a positive impact on others. From using sales from exhibitions to fill up shopping carts at Costco for Tucsons youth, to doodling on shoes for charity auctions, fundraisers for local non profits, each endeavor has been a labor of love.
