About me

I consider myself a traditional artist even though I've digitally designed and published software and graphics for several years. I also make dolls and fairy houses and I occasionally like to sew. Among my many hobbies, I've enjoyed learning a bit of nearly every craft including knitting, crochet, quilting, decorative painting, paper sculpting and oil painting.

I also love animals and working in the garden. I grow scented geraniums and Japanese maples as a hobby and I love to paint. My most recent painting was... my kitchen. I painted it yellow.

I've worked in the corporate world for over 20 years while raising three kids, doing my artwork in my spare time. I have held jobs in the banking, insurance and printing industries doing everything from underwriting to web programming. With the support of my husband of 35+ years, I now work on my own doing what I love best... painting and growing things.
 

Out of the box

In my most recent work life, I was a corporate web designer/developer, working for a printing company for a total of 14 years, the last 3 working in a 6 x 6 foot cubicle.

Two things I know for sure. I'm always going to be an artist (because it makes me happy) but not in a cubicle (because it doesn't).

The rest is just details.
