| About The Artist |
As a young girl I was always drawing or painting something. One day I was in the garage and came
across a wooden box filled with oil paints. How I never found those gems before that day
still remains a mystery. The paints were old and used, but all those fabulous colors looked wonderful
to me.
My father said the paints belonged to my grandmother, so I asked if I could have them. With the
addition of a few more colors, that was the beginning of my career as an artist. At age 17 I was offered
my first commission and I've been painting ever since.
I painted every chance I could and studied art continuously. Later in life, after the children were older,
I decided to return to school to study graphic arts. This was a way to earn a living, do something I enjoy
and remain in the art field. This led to a career in the arts and some wonderful experiences as an
illustrator and graphic designer over the past 22 years. However, my passion remains with painting.
Thankfully, I have received many commissions to satisfy this desire and my artwork resides in private
and corporate collections throughout the U.S.
To me creating art is a way to express my feelings about the beauty in the world around us. Included in
my subject material you'll find portraits of people, animals, homes, seascapes and landscapes. The
effect of light in a painting is something I find fascinating and continue to pursue. I especially enjoy
painting scenes from nature and creating memories for people. This gives me great satisfaction and
seeing a client happy with their work of art is even more gratifying.
I hope to capture those fleeting moments in time and share them with you through my artwork. A
painting brings the subject to life. Let me portray a special person, pet, place or home for you in a
one-of-a-kind original painting to cherish forever.
