I’m a mixed media artist drawing from observation on location.

For the last six years, I’ve filled sketchbooks with figure drawings, portraits, and urban sketches, scribbling out layers of watercolor, gouache, colored pencil, and more.

Nearly twenty years working as a professional dancer and movement educator brings sensitivity and joy to human bodies to my work. I’m also trained as a personal trainer so I’m practiced at helping people feel comfortable being observed, and I bring a collaborative spirit to working with models, clients, and colleagues.

I’m available for live, quick portrait sketches at events, as well as smaller-format portrait commissions from your photos.

I perform belly dance with Latifa’s Banat al-Beled. My teaching work includes training yoga teachers and I’m the author of Yoga Sequencing Secrets.

An eternal dabbler, I also make downtempo electronic music as edna fishmouse, and hosted a podcast with my spouse, Living in Hi-Fi, about our eclectic record collection, available wherever you listen to podcasts..

I’m based in Columbia, Maryland and work on-location throughout the DMV, where I might also be found walking in the woods and asking if we can stop for ice cream.
