A Supper Club with Grape Tomatoes

What started off as a way to make use of the many cookbooks accumulating on our shelves and channel our creativity, has quickly become the origin of The Supper Club. It’s also the first time I’ve tried a grape tomato.

Victorian Romance in a Bottle

There was a mood about the dining room—the walls looked like worn lipstick. Like a late-night date. The light a soft glow through the windows. It felt romantic. And it gave me an idea.

Lessons on a Long Weekend in Michigan

I scrunched my toes beneath the first layer of sand, pushing them further and further, until my feet were half buried. The warmth of the earth encased my, normally chilled, feet in a blanket.

The Girls

While they are peculiar, they also have this majestic and royal sense. The back feathers flow like waves upward and outward. Their faces are petite and hidden amongst the dramatic red of their comb and wattle. Meet The Girls.

The Art of Reilly

I wanted to create an iconic character who embodies the elements we admire while walking through the light and shadows of a gallery, treasuring the works around us, taking away the elements we love so dearly, and making them part of who we are.

A Moment in Time

The vessel was set. I balanced the flowers just so. A few frogs and tape to get it just right… But this piece isn’t just a floral arrangement in a vase.

Ranunculus, A Self Portrait Series

In this portrait, I wanted to explore a feeling of stillness and growth. A change of state but also the art of just being. In many ways, reminiscent of what my first year in my 30s has felt like.
