I began painting in watercolor over 25 years ago and have always been inspired by leafy green subjects. Lately what's interesting me ,as an artist, is painting florals and charming scenes that evoke the comforts of home and a wonder for God’s creation (with a dash of imagination).
A long-time stationery fanatic and homebody, I love creating useful & beautiful products from my paintings that help my customers tell a story and inspire contentment in their homes and delight in everyday tasks.
I have a Bachelor's degree in Studio Art and English from Indiana Wesleyan University, and my work has been represented by galleries and boutiques in Northern Indiana, Chicago, San Francisco and Nashville, TN. Features and publications include Forbes.com, The Paper Nerd blog, Somerset Studio,Taproot Magazine and Edible Communities magazines.
A few of my favorite things: moonrises, dark chocolate, Muppet humor, Americana music, classic lit and bird watching.
