I began my artist journey at age 8 drawing pictures from magazines and those cute little contests "Draw & Win" cartoon pictures. During my high school years, a friend and myself would draw during study hall crazy creatures in the corner of our books, then flip the pages and make them walk in motion on the pages. Everything about art, color, textures, symbols, technique excited me and I knew that art would be a part of my life.
In my early 20's a friend introduced me to oils where I fell in love with the ability to create landscapes and beautiful sceneries. Later in my 30's I began in acrylics by painting scenes and vibrant colors on old furniture and sheet metal for clients.
My love of watercolor & mixed media came into my life during a critical time in my life where I found the love art all over again. It's amazing after you turn 50! When you look at life and it means a whole lot more than it did before.
