About the Artist
I’m a self-taught artist and found my passion for art after retirement. I spend my time divided between our home in sunny Arizona and the remarkable beachside town of Pacific City, Oregon. I’m a retired educator and school counselor. After retirement in 2008, John and I moved to Arizona where I took my first art class in watercolors with a wonderful instructor. She told me I had talent and I quickly discovered a new passion – art!
I love color and the wonderful textures of nature and try to incorporate them into my art.
My first passion is drawing and I spend a great deal of time working in graphite and pastels but also love to work in acrylics. My goal is to portray the beauty and wonder of nature – both human and in the world around us - with bright colors and bold moves. I strive to convey feelings of hope and happiness through my work.
