Hi, I’m Annie.

I’m an artist and storyteller living in the foothills near Evergreen, Colorado, where daily life looks like watercolor palettes, community gatherings, half-finished creative projects, school drop-offs, and feeding whichever kids happen to wander through the door hungry.

I’ve always been drawn to the way beauty, memory, and meaning live inside everyday places. My background in ecology, botany, art, and restorative storytelling continues to shape the way I approach creative work — with curiosity, observation, and a deep appreciation for the character of local spaces and communities.

Lately, my creative work has been expanding beyond the studio into chalkboards, window art, and handcrafted signage inspired by community spaces, local storytelling, and the simple idea that art can brighten an ordinary day.

I’m also involved with the newly formed Evergreen Creative District — Colorado’s first rural creative district — where I continue exploring the role art plays in strengthening community identity and creating spaces that feel welcoming, meaningful, and alive.

Outside the studio, you’ll usually find me volunteering with the Evergreen Mountain Area Historical Society, wandering garden centers, collecting inspiration from old buildings and roadside signs, sewing ambitious projects that take too long, or walking our dogs beneath the pines.

If something here sparks an idea, I’d love to hear from you.

The best creative work doesn’t just decorate a space — it helps people feel something while they’re there.
