Bio

I’m an artist and creative business owner based on the Texas Gulf Coast, with over 20 years of experience creating and sharing art. My work is rooted in my faith in Jesus and shaped by a life of obedience, trust, and renewal. Through my business, Salt & Light, I create work that reflects both calling and craft, where creativity and faith are inseparable. My art ranges from colorful sea life inspired by coastal living to layered, symbolic pieces that incorporate Scripture, texture, and story. While the styles may vary, the foundation remains the same. I believe God meets us where we are and uses ordinary things such as color, movement, and creation itself to point back to Him. I’m drawn to contrast and balance. Bold color paired with quiet truth. Joy held together with reverence. Beauty that feels lived in rather than perfect. My business Salt & Light was built during a season when faith became daily practice, not just belief .After more than 20 years as a business owner, I was brought back to my faith in a way that transformed not only my life, but the way I create and lead. Creating became an act of obedience and stewardship. Art and entrepreneurship work together in everything I do. Each piece is made with intention and meant to be used, shared, and lived with. I believe creativity is a gift from God and that it carries purpose beyond aesthetics. My hope is that my work reflects His presence, steady and inviting, and serves as a reminder that light is always present, even when it feels hard to see. Outside the studio, I’m a wife, a mom to a teenage boy, and a devoted cat mom. Family, faith, and the everyday rhythms of life continue to shape both my art and my calling.
