I have always loved creating. My room has always been filled with various art supplies from drawing to jewelry. Art has become an escape for me, a way to relax, chill, and just let go. My favorites are drawing, painting, photography, and jewelry making. I started painting a couple of years ago when a pair of my skis delaminated and inspired by Chris Bentchetler and the atomic Bentchetler skis, I tried painting my own graphics. From there, painting skis has become one of my favorite art forms, and I love coming up with new ideas and bringing them to life on a recycled pair of skis. It brings together two of my favorite things in the world; skiing and creating. I am not a huge jewelry person, as I need pieces that are low maintenance and will hold up against the wear and tear of being outside and in the elements. I started creating pura vida-like bracelets that would last against daily use and were super bright and colorful. I love coming up with new color combinations and different patterns and almost all the bracelets I make are one of a kind. I have also started getting into photography and love to photograph ski jumping and various outdoor sports. If you are interested in a pair of skis or any of my art you can connect me at awesomesaucelex@gmail.com or if you want to purchase some bracelets, I have partnered with another bracelet creater in Steamboat and you can check out our Etsy.
