As the daughter of an artist, I suppose it was (or became) second nature to have a brush in my hand, always creating something. From the time I was little I loved making things; I wanted whatever I could get my hands on, paint, crayons, pencils, fabric, clay, something. I am very inspired by the earth and nature and am quite drawn to trees. Life's events inspire me to create more. I love exploring with new techniques, media, and feelings related to art. My work is primarily acrylics, however I do work in all mediums. I now travel throughout the southeast US competing in juried art shows as well as holding one woman art shows in the Orlando area.
