Meet The Artist
Canvas Is Life
From a very young age, different family members influenced and contributed to my love of art and travel. My Father gifted me with my first set of oils as a child, thus beginning a passion of a lifetime—my love of all things art-related.
I entered the University of Georgia to study art, but life led me into the service of my country as a military wife and mother. During those years of travel, I further nurtured my love and appreciation for the art world. Blessed to have lived and traveled throughout Europe and the Middle East, each stop along the way has contributed to my style and technique.
After raising my family and retiring from a successful career in real estate and as a business coach, I have settled back into my art full-time. It has become a true passion of mine resurfaced to pick up my paints once again.

“To my mind a picture should be something pleasant, cheerful and pretty. There are too many unpleasant things in life as it is without creating still more of them.” ~Pierre-Auguste Renoir
