2022 in Review

Looking Back on 2024

This year has been a journey of creativity and growth. I pushed boundaries, explored new techniques, and reconnected with beloved themes in my art. Each moment felt like a step toward deeper inspiration and connection.

One of my proudest accomplishments was completing the Fusion collection, a celebration of nature through bold brushstrokes and intricate line-ism. Pieces like the vibrant sunflower, regal daisy blooms, and whimsical zinnia paintings drew from the stunning landscapes of Sussex County, reflecting the peaceful beauty of the world around us.

I also ventured into the world of alcohol inks, crafting decorative vases that brought an element of spontaneity and fluidity to my work. These experiments taught me to embrace the unexpected and find joy in creative freedom.

As the year came to a close, I delved into holiday-themed projects, including a hand-painted Christmas tree piece that captured the spirit and nostalgia of the season.

Now, I’m turning my gaze toward 2025 with excitement. I look forward to exploring fresh ideas, expanding my collection, and connecting with more people who resonate with my art. To everyone who supported me this year—thank you for being part of this journey.

Here’s to a new year filled with creativity, inspiration, and meaningful connections!

As 2022 comes to a close, I’m filled with excitement and a sense of accomplishment as I reflect on the art I’ve created this year. My work has ranged from tiny 2×2 pointillism pieces to bold 20×20 abstract oil paintings. Along the way, I’ve also explored alcohol ink florals and even experimented with painting on rocks.

This year, I allowed myself to dive into both fine art and more playful, crafty projects because, at the end of the day, art is all about having fun and expressing myself through visual design.

2022 has been a significant year for me, with some exciting achievements. I received an honorable mention at the Art on the Hill Art Show and earned second place in a GNAL student art show—both of which are huge milestones in my artistic journey. On top of that, I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Graphic Design and Media Arts, making this year even more rewarding.

I also had the pleasure of organizing an art show called Heatwave, which opened at The Artist’s Loft in Conshohocken, Pennsylvania. Additionally, I participated in my second year of the Montco Studio Tour, founded by Jeff Schaller.

This year has been one of artistic growth, particularly in Jim Green’s Oil Painting class at GNAL, where we’ve been exploring everything from landscapes to chiaroscuro.

As I look ahead to 2023, I’m excited to continue this amazing art journey and see where it takes me.
