Animals have always been at the heart of my life and my work. For years, my beloved shepherds, Kira and Max, were my constant companions and creative muses. Their presence brought endless inspiration, and they often found their way into the subjects and spirit of my work. Though they have since passed, their memory continues to guide me.

Eight months later, a sweet Huskita trotted into my life and quietly stole my heart. We’ve formed a deep bond, and our time together—especially our long walks and quiet moments—has brought a sense of healing, joy, and renewed inspiration. My love for animals runs deep, and that connection continues to shape who I am and everything I create.
