About The Artist

Since I was little, all of my free time has been spent outdoors.  I love reaching mountain tops, gliding on the water, watching the birds, smelling the flowers, sitting under the stars around the campfire, etc. while spending quality time with loved ones.  Regardless if it is a crazy adventure with lots of gear and planning or a quiet, little, spontaneous stroll, happiness lies in the adventure and discovery of life's hidden gems.  

​

Through my Bachelor of Biological Sciences degree from St. Mary's University, I was able to deepen my love of nature with frequent trips to the different parks, and a voyage to Belize.  Now, as an elementary teacher, I hope to share my love of nature with the next generation of kids.  

​

My art is inspired by my love of nature and showcasing its beauty. 

​

The name "Zoée's Turtle Treasures" comes from my years of lifeguarding on a lake at a wilderness summer camp, and from my adventure partner, Ray-Ray the turtle.

"Advice from a sea turtle.  Swim with the current.  Be a good navigator.  Stay calm under pressure.  Be well traveled.  Think long term. Age gracefully. Spend time at the beach!"
