"Color is the emotional signature of a space."

There was a time I couldn’t see color—literally. A medication I was on muted everything: my palette, my emotions, my creativity. It felt like living in gray scale, both visually and spiritually. But when I came off those medications, the world came rushing back—vivid, alive, unapologetic. And with it, gratitude. That’s when I picked up a paintbrush for the first time in years… and something shifted. Color became my voice.
My way to heal.
My way to say, “I’m still here. And I feel everything now.” What started as a personal path back to myself evolved into a joyful, fulfilling business. Today, I create dopamine-layered artwork and maximalist home decor to help others bring emotion, movement, and soul into their spaces. Every piece I make is rooted in my Dopamine Layering Method™, a blend of color theory, expressive brushwork, and emotional intuition. From bold florals to moody, saturated landscapes, each work is a love letter to life after the dark. If you’ve ever felt muted, overlooked, or stuck in beige—this is your sign:
Live louder. Live in full color.

The Dopamine Layering Method

Was born from my return to color—so I always begin with it. Every original starts with a vivid underpainting of bright yellow, coral, and orange, like lighting a fire beneath the surface. These tones aren't always visible in the final piece, but they infuse the work with warmth, energy, and emotional memory. From there, I layer expressive brushstrokes, moody hues, and intuitive marks until the painting feels alive. It’s not just technique—it’s a ritual. A way to capture joy, movement, and all the feelings we usually keep tucked away. This is art meant to be felt, not just seen.
