"I love when a painting draws us in, making us imagine we could or should be there!"
Growing up in Missouri, I was lucky to spend my childhood shared between a small rural town west of St. Louis and the Ozarks. With its gentle rolling hills, shimmering lakes, rivers and vibrant sunsets, my appreciation for water and nature grew. As I became older this love never faded, so it was an easy decision in college to pursue my degree in Art. I worked as a graphic artist for a short time, but my desire was to view and experience more of the world, leading to a 30-year-career as a flight attendant.
Now retired since 2021, I've jumped back in full-time exploring, learning and improving my artistic passion. With every class I attend, workshop I take, or event I participate in, each brings a new challenge for improvement.
My paintings reflect a unique blend of my love of the Classic Impressionists and now Modern Impressionism styles. Creating that moment for the viewer to see something differently or unique, and experience a personal connection is my ultimate goal. My work is inspired by my continuing travels, and finding the beauty in the landscapes and regions I love.
