I discovered dot art in 2022 while scrolling Facebook. A simple dotted Christmas tree caught my eye, and I thought, “I can do that.” I picked up a brush and a few dotting tools, and I haven’t really put them down since.

Painting mandalas became my calm place. When words don’t come easily, color and pattern do. The focus, symmetry, and rhythm of each dot gave me a stillness I didn’t know I was missing.

I work intuitively. I rarely plan a piece out. I start with a color or a feeling and let it grow from the center out, adding rhinestones, dimensional dots, and metal accents as it asks for them. No two are alike, and each one has a story, sometimes a trip, a song, a season, or a person.

My mandalas range from soft ocean blues to bold black and red, and I paint suncatchers that throw color across the room when the light hits them.

I’m based in Illinois and share my work at local craft fairs and events. This fall you can find me at the Body Mind Spirit Celebration, Booth 512, October 24-25, 2026.

Thank you for being here.
