Born and raised in Amador County, I have been a pencil artist and pianist here for 10 years. In my artwork, I aim for a high degree of realism, saturation and detail. I enjoy drawing scenes of amazing local architecture, and the natural world.
I was introduced to pencil art in elementary school and began entering my art in the Amador County Fair in 2nd Grade. My grandmother, Ilona Novaky, was a member of the Amador County Artists Association, and her encouragement inspired me to excel in art and music alike. I received many awards for my art, including the Spinetta Wildlife Award and Best of Show as a child.
My time at Amador High School was also pivotal in developing my artistic and musical skills. I was a member of their Jazz and Concert bands, and I took some design courses there.
I am currently attending Folsom Lake College and exploring different career paths. One of my goals with my artwork is to inspire other young artists to share their work and develop their talents. I believe it is never too early to start marketing yourself and making a difference in the world!
