ARtful counsel /Legal creativity

Legal services for artists, creative entrepreneurs, and arts organizations - provided by a practicing artist and seasoned attorney.

As both an artist and a lawyer, I understand that your creative practice isn’t just a passion - it’s your livelihood, your legacy, and sometimes, your most valuable asset. I offer strategic, informed legal support with an intuitive understanding of the art world and its nuances.

legal services for the creative class.

My practice is rooted in both legal insight and lived creative experience. I work with individual artists, writers, creative entreprenuers, collectives, and institutions to structure agreements, protect rights, and build sustainable practices — without compromising artistic vision.

studio sessions: legal insight for artists.

Empowering artists with legal knowledge is part of my practice. I offer classes and workshops designed to help you understand the legal frameworks that affect your work — because informed artists make better business decisions.

Whether you’re an emerging artist or a seasoned creative looking to deepen your understanding of rights, contracts, or nonprofit formation, these classes are designed with you in mind.

My Studio practice and portfolio.

My approach to law is shaped by the rhythms of the studio. I maintain an active art practice — primarily in mixed media painting, fine art/film photography, and textiles — that informs how I think, see, and advocate. The legal arguments and processes I build are grounded in a deep respect for creative process.
