About Me

Hi! I’m Sydney—a lover of all things beautiful.

Originally from Norfolk, Virginia, I studied graphic design at Virginia Commonwealth University. I’ve loved painting since I was little (I’ve been calling myself an artist since kindergarten!), and secretly imagined that’s what I would be when I grew up. After working in a fine art gallery, interior design, and bespoke textile design, I decided it was time for a fresh start after having my son, Elwood. Painting became that fresh start—and I’ve never felt more like myself.

Now I live in my favorite place, Charleston, SC, with my husband, Andrew, Elwood, our black lab River, and tortie kitty Roux. I’m inspired by the beauty of everyday life: the Lowcountry landscape, a great color palette, the thrill of finding something special while thrifting, or even a bright, citrusy scent.

I believe beautiful artwork can bring joy, wonder, and a little bit of magic into a home. It’s my joy to create paintings that do just that.
