Hi, I’m a visual artist based in Maine, focusing on pencil portraits, paintings, block printing, and nature-inspired designs. I started in 2018 with pencil portraits and small commissions, then expanded into commissions and products through social media. In 2021 I studied at Maine Arts Academy and took courses on business practice, marketing for artists, and digital design using tools like Canva and Photoshop. As of 2024 I’ve returned to creating and selling my art, selling at markets year-round, and working with local galleries and event coordinators along the coast of Maine. My practice centers on learning and sharing Indigenous culture through art and community projects. I launched Artistic Reciprocity to sell nature-inspired pencil portraits, paintings, and block-printed pieces, and I run The People’s Portraits as a charitable venture that donates proceeds to credible organizations. I enjoy commissions and collaborating with galleries, event organizers, and community groups around Maine.
