I’m not an artist. At least, I never thought I was. But as it turns out, that thought was the only thing holding me back. Now I’m dedicated to helping you gain the confidence and tools you need to create the watercolor and lettering pieces of your creative dreams—because if I can go from zero to artist, so can you. ❤️
