Everyone is a work of art. Some are impressionistic, some are graphic, and some are abstract.

I like to think of myself as an enigma, wrapped in a riddle, but I'm really not. There are 3 things I am very passionate about- financial planning is one. When my husband and I learned how money works, it made a huge amount of difference in our ability to focus on what we want in our lives, now and in our future. Self development/personal growth is another. We love on this earth once, and the life we have been given is an amazing blessing. Personal growth helps you see the beauty every day, with the goal being to feel the joy in every moment. Art is the passion- the glasses through which I look at the world- everything about it. Art history, all mediums-I love art as expression and performance. I want people to see the beauty in their own lives when they see the beauty of life in my art.
I work in many mediums- pastels, watercolor, acrylics, stained glass, acrylic pouring, silk painting, egg tempera. I dabble in creating videos and graphics. I enjoy multi process mixed media. It used to be such a glorious mystery to take photographs and not really know exactly how they were going to turn out before processing the film

It used to be such a glorious mystery to take photographs and not really know exactly how they were going to turn out before processing the film, and spending time in the darkroom to see how things turned out. The damn mystery is gone, so I like to play in mediums that have a process or add new elements. But it seems I always gravitate back to acrylic.
My favorite painting is Picasso's "Still Life with Pedestal Table." Picasso was in his forties, and married to Olga Khokhlova when he met 17 year old Marie Therese Walter and started an affair. He painted "Still Life on Pedestal Table" as a love letter to her. It looks abstract, but if you knew his life, or if he told you, you'd know w
My favorite painting is Picasso's "Still Life with Pedestal Table." Picasso was in his forties, and married to Olga Khokhlova when he met 17 year old Marie Therese Walter and started an affair. He painted "Still Life on Pedestal Table" as a love letter to her. It looks abstract, but if you knew his life, or if he told you, you'd know what it meant. It's not the fact that the painting was done by what would now be regarded a child molester that makes it my favorite. It's that it's very personal, and reflects feelings that the artist cannot speak. I am inspired by what happens in life, in history, in my personal growth, and in my faith.
