I have been an artist all my life. (I know this because my mother told me so from a very young age and of course I believed her!) I love art. I love painting and drawing, color, all of it. When I was younger, I mainly stuck to representational art, being so inspired by the beauty of the Pacific Northwest where I have lived all my life. But as I get older I am more interested in the intangible things, the feelings beyond the colors and shapes around me.
I am self taught, with the help of many books, magazine and videos. I am actually glad that I have made this journey myself, as I haven't had to wrestle with how a teacher might feel my art needs to be. I can pull my feelings straight from my heart and paint away.
