Howdy!
I am currently a graduate student at Texas A&M, originally from College Station, and painting has always been a passion-hobby! I specialize in mixed media pieces, and dabble in everything from water color, digital, to custom decorated sugar cookies. Most of my art is made for friends and family but I take a handful of commission works throughout the year, please feel free to contact me through social media, LJ Arts!

This will be my first time entering art in a “contest” since high school! And I can’t wait to share this experience with Downtown Bryan!
