What’s your Artist Statement?
My drawings depict strong female figures, period nostalgia (especially from the 90s), and flora, always deeply rooted in history with a bit of whimsy.
Why JIGGY?
Jiggy puzzles are so beautiful and timeless, and I'm excited to have my work in the homes of many different people.
What are you most excited about in becoming a JIGGY Studio artist?
Seeing others interacting with my work in a new way!
What’s your puzzle strategy and ritual?
I love to have some music and snacks ready, and always start with the edges.
If you could collaborate with any artist, dead or alive, who would it be?!
Patti Smith
Who's your dream guest for a dinner & puzzle party?
Probably also Patti Smith!
Where can people find you?
