Unwrapped, installed and finally home!
I love how the work brings together ideas of transformation, identity, and memory while creating this world that feels completely its own.

I’ve never publicly detailed my Commission Process but thought I would after this latest truly wonderful experience.
1)Choose size, colors and theme ie what do I want to FEEL from this painting?
2. Invite others to participate in the underpainting. Select words, sayings, poems, images, anything that will add loving and beautiful energy to the piece. Spend some time creating the base layer with paint, pastels, crayons, sharpies, etc.
3. I take it from there, creating a multilayered heirloom for your home. Each layer includes additional sentiments working around and over early layers.
4. Painting is stretched (large pieces), framed and installed. *Special shout out to @grandframeinc in Arlington Heights who did a spectacular job stretching and framing this large canvas so beautifully!

parisian meets punk 🥀🪭 family room reveal! situated off our dine-in kitchen, this room is the beating heart of our home, so comfort & functionality had to take precedence when it came to designing it (read: balancing my love for visually impactful design with my audiophile husband’s love for big TVs & speakers— & no, we are not a frame TV household). The inevitability of monolithic tech aside, we decided to commission a painting by one of my favorite artists, @janedashley , to give the room a true focal point over the mantel since the room layout didn’t require a TV there. Jane brought to life a stunning large-scale painting brimming with symbolic imagery that’s meaningful to me, while remaining faithful to her signature playful artistic style that captivated me in the first place. We then pulled some of the colors from the painting (which itself referenced a palette I’d created through various textiles in the room) & translated them into our decidedly irreverent mosaic terrazzo fireplace surround to tie it all together. I still have more plans for this room, including something fun for the row of arches that separate it from the kitchen, as well as sourcing side tables, more art for the walls, & hopefully a special piece of sculptural art at some point, too.

L E T i G R E 🦁 Guest bedroom reveal! Confession: I designed this entire room around a Persian rug I found on Marketplace. From stripes of all colors & multiple scales and vibrant trim inspired by the @houseofhackney pillow on the bed, to chinoiserie touches like refinished thrifted faux bamboo nightstands & a pagoda-style mirror, & a whimsical painting by one of my favorite artists, the room reads a bit like a choose-your-own-adventure novel. The pièce de résistance? An Hermès scarf my mom gave me years ago, hand sewn to a mat and framed in a fabulous bubble gum pink acrylic frame by local frame shop, @grandframeinc . The juxtapositions of old & new & bold & nuanced strike a balance that, I think, feels both welcoming and unexpected.

Turning a house into a home starts with the walls. 🖼️✨
Tip One: ART 🪄

Whether it’s a cherished antique oil or a bold modern piece, don’t wait to hang what you love.

✔️ Reframe and light vintage finds to give them new life.
✔️ Create gallery walls with varied sizes in one clean grid for a polished look.
✔️ Most importantly—surround yourself with pieces that speak to you!

Your art tells your story—let it take center stage.

✨Chicago meets Nashville✨

Anita and Stephen’s 70s themed wedding was so much fun! They hired a Nashville band to play at their wedding in Chicago’s historic Chinatown.

So it was absolutely necessary to incorporate a guitar! A trim of gold foil along with the maroon ribbon from her bouquet - I feel like this piece totally captures the vibe of their wedding.

Anita and I go way back to grade school so preserving her wedding flowers was a huge honor! ❤️

It’s taken me a while to post this…
Back in March, we celebrated 40 incredible women through the most soul filling, emotional, and powerful night of my career — our very first 40 Over 40 Exhibit. Over 100 people showed up. We laughed, we cried, we honored stories that deserved to be seen and heard.
But shortly after that unforgettable night, I experienced a personal loss in my family. The kind that knocks the wind out of you. So I stepped back. Went quiet. Grieved.
And now, with a full heart and steady breath, I’m slowly finding my way back.
This exhibit wasn’t just about portraits. It was about transformation. Belonging. Celebration. It was about women finally being seen for all that they are; strong, soft, beautiful, imperfect, radiant.
To every woman who stood in front of my lens… thank you.
To every person who showed up to witness this moment… thank you.
To everyone who’s been cheering quietly behind the scenes… I see you.
I’m back now; more grounded, more grateful, and more ready than ever to keep building this movement.
The next chapter is unfolding. And if you’re feeling the call… come with me.

Thank you to everyone who helped make our poster sale this past weekend a massive success! 👏🎉 Overwhelming support poured in on all fronts, and community came together in a big bright way to help support The Catlow restoration project.

From an unexpected article in Sunday’s Daily Herald to CBS reaching out to do a story on The Catlow, this weekend turned into much more than just posters. The best is yet to come❣️💫

We are extremely grateful to Barrington Afterhours Rotary Club for their sponsorship and their devoted time, passion, and effort to this innovative fundraiser. A special thank you to Jeffrey A. Kelch, founder and CEO of The Digital Archive Group, for generously donating over a thousand posters.

We appreciate all of our amazing volunteers which included many BHS student volunteers. Thank you to our generous sponsors: @adrunivineyards , @chewcuteriegrazingboards , @nothingbundtcakes, @bobthedj_roig , @grandframeinc and Long & Co. Jewelers of Barrington. ✨

Bridal bouquet replica.

Lowkey obsessed with how this turned out.

I dried the flowers in a variety of ways which helped produce the most beautiful colors and texture. NONE of the flowers were color corrected! Only the leaves, ever so slightly.

@ariesfloralstudio made a stunning replica of Cristina’s bridal bouquet.

@grandframeinc beautifully crafted this double layered frame that takes it to a whole new level.

Bridal bouquet replicas make a great gift!
Reach out for pricing and availability!
