I've always loved color and unique beauty of all sorts. In fact, I remember as a young child looking at the sky and wondering what colors did God use to get that exact shade of blue? I was intrigued and determined to find out! By the way, I still do that!
Years later, as I began to decorate my own home, I would pour over my decorating books and magazines or again, nature--and wonder at the splendor of art and color! It only seemed natural for me to grab a canvas and paints!!
At the time I had taken no art courses, but I continued to paint and hang art on my walls. Soon I had family and friends requesting their own paintings! And then it hit me, "Why not try to sell some art?" I had nothing to lose--and so much to gain! Oh my word! What a ball this journey was been--yes, I've second guessed myself a million and one times, and I'll probably continue to do that for years! But every time I've wanted to give up--something wonderful happens! I can't stop--I'm so very happy when I'm painting!
My work stands alone as a great focal piece or it's a wonderful addition to any collection! It adds texture, movement, interest, and color--working WITH a space, bringing it together in a way that delights the eye!
I live in Huntsville, Alabama with my general contractor husband and our boxer baby, Will. Our children and three grandsons live close by, which thrills our hearts! I spend most of my time in my studio!
