Arts and Carafes Paint Party

In 2017 , I opened Arts & Carafes. In those 8 years, I have had the opportunity to meet so many wonderful people. Some have just been for short visits to create an afternoon art piece; others have become life long friends. All of them have left me with lasting memories. This was a journey that I never could have expected to impact my life the way it has. I love what I do; I feel so fortunate to have been able to share my studio and passion with so many of you. My art students make me proud every single day, seeing their talents improve and their passion for art grow.

I am sad to say that as of April 29th, my studio will close. I am not sure what the future will bring, but I am confident, art will be a big part of it. There are many things I’d like to do, but only time will tell which of those are possible. For now, I will continue to do pet portraits and custom work from my home. I have appreciated the support my clients have given me over the years and hope that this is just a pause to parties and gatherings.
