“I have a lifetime behind me of art teaching, entrepreneurship, child rearing and manual labor. I now devote myself to the joy of making visual art. seven years now I have been creating in oil and acrylic paint speaking my heart through visual story-telling. I often begin my paintings on location, then finish in the studio. the subject of each painting has grabbed me in some indefinable way that told me to dig deeper into the experience. The moments say to me to stop, look, feel the energies involved, revere the moment.”
