Instead, I went to interior design college, which was my next favorite passion, graduated with a BFA, and started my own design business. Two years later, I opened an art gallery with a partner. My love of art was focused on finding artists and art I could sell to make environments I designed come to life. I lived my artist dream through the artists I represented at the gallery.
Years later, when I closed the gallery, I went to work for a well-respected interior designer in Miami who gave me the chance to paint a large format piece on a wall with a faux finish in Penrod’s, a major restaurant she was designing.
Needless to say, it came out brilliantly. It was at that point when I decided to open my own decorative paint company, which marked the beginning of my life as an artist. I have painted murals, trompe l’oeil, and exquisite artwork on canvas to beautifully finish the rooms in some of the most luxurious homes in South Florida.
