As an avid journaler for many years I have felt an intense desire to create something more to express my feelings than just words.  Allowing myself to paint and give shape to my feelings is a tool of self-expression I feel more comfortable sharing with others.

I am a self-taught artist who pours over art books of all kind: How to’s, individual artist’s styles, and art history.  I desire to express my personal statement through bright colors and new techniques.

I strive to grow as an artist, a mother and a teacher of young children, by keeping an open mind and always remaining a student myself.
