A little about me

I was born in Oakland California.  Our family moved to Oregon when I was very young, and we have lived here ever since. 

My education has always included the Arts, but my first career was in the Medical field.  I gave up that career, after our second child was born, and have been happily painting and studying art ever since.

The one constant in my life has always been creating.  Painting became my number one passion, at the age of 11, when I walked through the door of Mrs. Allyn's Seventh grade Art class.  I can still feel the excitement.  Especially the morning I walked in and saw my first, "One Woman Art Show".  The banner was above the huge collection of paintings I had created.  And, yes, there were several colorful cats back then, too.  I was hooked!  And, I hope Mrs. Allyn can see the rich life I have lived...because of her and her Seventh Grade Art Class.  

  Most of my work has been whimsical, colorful cats and dogs; with a few humans here and there.  I do enjoy painting landscapes, portraits and abstracts, as well.   Presently I'm focusing on Mixed Media paintings.

I find, as time goes on, that my work is coming more and more from my imagination.  I strive not for perfection, but feelings, emotions and movement.  I am very excited to be creating and exploring Art full-time.
