Howdy!
I am currently a graduate student at Texas A&M, originally from College Station, and painting has always been a passion-hobby! I specialize in mixed media pieces, and dabble in everything from water color, digital, to custom decorated sugar cookies. Most of my art is made for friends and family but I take a handful of commission works throughout the year, please feel free to contact me through social media, LJ Arts!
This will be my first time entering art in a “contest” since high school! And I can’t wait to share this experience with Downtown Bryan!

I am a local artist who enjoys working with watercolor, acrylic, oil, glass, ceramics, and metals. I enjoy incorporating surrealistic imagery and abstract expression. I was born and raised in Bryan, and I now live in the country in a small tiny home that I helped to construct with friends. I received a Bachelor of Fine Arts with a concentration in Metalsmithing & Jewelry from the University of North Texas in 2021. As a certified yoga instructor, my goals with my artistic expression are aimed at incorporating mindfulness with the creative act.
I believe that the true beauty of a work lies within the dedication to the refinement of skills from the craftsman combined with the spiritual growth of the consciousness. I generally try to actualize aesthetically pleasing designs, and I enjoy learning about the physical world around me to strengthen the forms I create. In combination with yogic philosophy, other major inspirations for my art include human anatomy, scientific phenomena, evolution, and the psychological implications of inner work. This is my first plein air competition, and I’m excited to practice a looser approach to painting!

My art style is a fusion of realism and imagination, where I use vibrant colors and expressive techniques to bring out the beauty and individuality of each subject.
