Finding art you love enough to live with can be as tricky as finding the right person to live with.”
As an art expert for over thirty years, I know how frustrating it can be to find art + objects you truly connect with and bring you joy. Most people don’t know what they should be looking for, get frustrated with too many options, and the lack confidence to choose the best pieces for their space.
The most common questions collectors ask me are:
-
- Are there other options besides paintings?
- How can I tell if the artist is reliable so my artwork arrives safely?
- How do I begin my art collection?
Learning that so many people are intimidated buying artwork, I realized that many talented and reputable artists are missing out on sales so I decided to make art buying easier.
Welcome to this special place, built around a personal passion: matching discerning collectors searching for fabulous artwork with local pieces passionately crafted by hand-picked American artists and design studios.
Dive into my diverse and mindfully growing Embrace Creatives online gallery to discover a vast array of paintings, photography, fiber/textiles, furniture, fine craft, paper art, and more expertly crafted by reliable artists who rise to my strict business standards.
Too busy to look for art on your own? Allow me to guide you! I will handle the sourcing responsibilities, manage custom artwork projects, and schedule delivery and installation. I become your art partner, expertly taking care of your projects, bringing you the best artwork for your home and office, stress-free.
Seriously, I love what I do! Helping you end the frustration of buying art and empowering artists is why I developed Embrace Creatives.
The future of your collection begins here!

Curious about me?
People tell me they can “see” my passion for what I do.
An award winning artist who attended the University of Michigan School of Art & Design served me well but I became antsy and decided to move to New York to study design at Fashion Institute of Technology. However, even as a professional designer, I never stopped creating artwork and continued to exhibit around the country. As a designer, I started a modern jewelry line which garnered press inside Women’s Wear Daily, The Gem Trade Association, National Jeweler, the Retail Jeweler, the Chicago Sun Times, and more.
My professional background includes time with Perry Ellis Portfolio Menswear and then as Isaac Mizrahi’s Director of Merchandising and Operations. After thirty years living and working the East Coast, I moved back home to Detroit in 2014 – curating exhibitions and advising artists while entering the workforce as the Manager of Lawrence Technological University’s Detroit Center for Design and Technology. In 2021, LTU brought me to Southfield as their College of Art and Design’s External Outreach, Social Media, and Events Manager.
When COVID 19 hit I saw galleries and retailers faltering – I felt the need to help my artist peers in some way. I developed and launched my Embrace Creatives online gallery in January, 2021 and my artist friends rushed onboard. Sales were instantaneous and things haven’t slowed down. I’ve been blessed to have the opportunity to sell local art to big time buyers like Muguel McKelvey, co founder and former chief culture office of WeWork, global corporations like Siemens, local business owners, through award-winning interior design firms, and national collectors. I have BIG plans for Embrace Creatives and am excited to see what the future holds.
