I am an emerging artist who finds inspiration in the images I find in nature,culture and my imagination. I create in acrylic,watercolor, or oil mediums.
In April 2015 my daughter Kelley suggested we try painting at a local paint & wine spot. I said "Kel, I will go but you should know I can't even draw a stickman." I drew a stickman to prove it and she laughed and said "You really CAN'T draw Mom!"
We went anyway, then we went again and again. This gave me the confidence to try painting on my own. I now use this creative process to quiet my mind and as a visual expression of my grief, joy and passions.
I donate a percentage of the profits from the sale of my work to my two greatest passions, suicide prevention and animal protection/rights.
I occasionally sell original pieces, but can produce a print of any of the pieces offered here. I have also created commissioned pieces.
Lastly, if you want to host a "paint and sip" party in your home, I provide all of the supplies needed and will instruct the group on a pre-selected painting for up to two hours.
