Hi!
I’m a local artist living in Kirkland, originally from Spain. I studied Fine Art in England and hold a Bachelor’s degree in Multimedia. For many years, I enjoyed a successful career as a freelance web designer.
My life took a wonderful turn when I moved to the USA 19 years ago. Now, I’m a proud mother of two energetic boys who bring me immense joy and inspiration. I primarily paint with my fingers, allowing me to connect with the paint and the canvas in a tactile way allowing the paint to go where it wants. I only use handcrafted oils on canvases. Paintings inspirated from walks by the lake and the diverse landscapes of the PNW. Sunsets hold a special significance for me, symbolizing both the end of a day and the promise of a new beginning.
I began painting at a young age, next to my mother’s desk, and held my first exhibition at just 17. I love showcasing my work in cafes, bars, and local businesses. Places where friends and community come together. Each painting is uniquely crafted for its location and audience, and I welcome opportunities to exhibit my art. This year, I’ve enjoyed numerous commissions, transforming rooms with vibrant colors. It’s incredibly rewarding to see the smiles of staff in grey offices when my paintings brighten their environment. I’ve even witnessed emotional responses as memories are triggered by my art, each piece telling a wonderful story.
The vibrancy of my artwork reflects my personality, and I like to think of them as bursts of positive energy. My goal is to evoke emotion and inspire joy through my work, creating what I can only describe as an awakening of the soul. Each piece is created to simply make you feel and smile or simply bring you peace of some kind.
I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoy painting them.
