From the first time my Grandma Cincy bought me a pack of markers to the present day.........

every time I am creating, I am lost in a magical experience!  

I learned at a young age that I was a little different, however it was not until I was an adult that I realized that my ”difference” meant that I am a creative and curious soul.  I look at and exist in the world differently than most.

As an adult, I see that truly as a gift that now makes me smile and laugh out loud all the time!  I embrace it as often as I can in all areas of my life whether it be in my classroom, in my studio, while traveling, with food, the clothing I wear or my own artwork. My motto is: “Variety is the spice of life.”  I want to make the world a prettier and more colorful place. 

​

I now share my creative skills with others, particularly with my students as a Master in Art Education Teacher, I encourage my students to embrace their “differences” so they can discover how truly remarkable they are when they allow their own creativity to SHINE! I bring to my students, and to my art, worldwide travel experiences and a deep passion for life. 

​

As an artist, I am inspired by color, nature's beauty and repetition of form that I see everywhere around me!  Recently I have been referred to as an Expressionist & a Colorist. so for now ... I am an Expressionistic Colorist.

​

I am proud of home interiors I have created; my paintings; my photographs; and my glass pieces that grace both residential and commercial dwellings coast to coast. I am pleased to share my portfolio with you, at your request!

I LOVE doing custom, commissioned work please contact me if you are interested!
