From her Pacific Northwest studio, Denise paints stunning oil landscapes that reflect both the beauty of nature and the resilience of a heart rooted in God’s goodness. In our conversation, she opens up about her heritage, her journey of overcoming insecurity, and the joy she finds in continually exploring new creative paths.
