Hi, I’m Erin!

I’m a painter and mama to my sweet Annie girl. I’ve always loved art and color (my bedroom in high school was lime green!) and though I hold a degree in Visual Arts, I truly rediscovered my passion in 2020 when I painted a custom gift for a friend. That one piece reignited my creative spark and led me to the magical, ever-surprising world of watercolor. I no longer gravitate towards lime green but I do embrace color in my pieces.

Motherhood deepened my love of creativity in ways I never thought possible. After Annie was born in 2024 and I found my footing again as a new mom, I was craving that part of me. I created a little corner in our home where I find myself painting with the windows open, jazz playing in the background, and a brush in hand during nap times or after bedtime. In those moments, time slows, and I feel completely present. Being a mother makes me a better artist, and being an artist makes me a more grounded mother.

I'm inspired by life itself, all the little glimmers and everyday moments. My style is colorful and simple, with an heirloom quality, the kind of art you might find in your mother’s or grandmother’s home. Each piece is created to bring joy today and be cherished for years to come. My greatest hope is that my work makes you smile and speaks to you in a meaningful ways.

Welcome. I’m so glad you’ve found your way to my little corner.

I can’t wait to share more of this journey with you!
