If I can't paint or draw, I read. Mostly art books and inspirational books. Artists need to feed their heads so as not to get in the way of the heart.

I picked up a paint brush during an extended illness as a child. I haven't stopped painting since. I have been a graphic designer, an advertising art director, artist coop director, and a muralist. I closed my mural business in June of 2007 to concentrate on my painting, which had been suffering from 60 hour work weeks painting everything from desert landscapes to the very popular Tuscan scenes and still lifes. Walking away from a profitable business was difficult. My husband thought I was NUTS and my clients continue to call to try to talk me into painting "just one more".
I am honored to be a part of artscuttlebutt artists and look forward to seeing all of your work and watching for comments on mine
HAPPY PAINTING/SHOOTING/SCULPTING TO EVERYONE

Music touches my soul as much as visual art. I enjoy a wide variety of music depending on my mood - everything from "oldies" to blues to bluegrass (some old country) to classical guitar and piano. I like to explore art museums and am sort of a history buff. I love to experiment with textures and color in my work to see where it will lead me next.

Snobs. Lying.

When people ask me what do I do for a living - I answer, I paint.
When people ask me what I do in my spare time - I answer, I paint.
When people ask me what do I do for fun - I answer, I paint.
