As a left-handed Aries I celebrate a life-long love of Art of all types and mediums. Being a child in a right-handed world I learned to ‘teach ’ myself the skills and techniques of the arts and crafts lovingly created by the women in my family – an amazing legacy. As a self-taught artist I soon found joy in exploring and experimenting creating my own style. As an avid reader and learner I have eagerly sought out inspiration and ideas from others and adapted them to my way of doing things. Years spent as a Gallery Director, surrounded by art, has enriched my quest to create. I must have an endless reservoir of images and ideas in my head as I create spontaneously, intuitively, and, as my daughter likes to say, the art just “sparks off her fingertips”/

I love the tools and supplies of all the creative mediums and have a studio in the redwoods filled with them, enticing me to create. My motto is- "its a good day when you learn something new" and my days are full!

All of my artwork is, at this time, ORIGINALS, all handmade and uniquely designed. I am influenced by inspiration from others art but strive to find my own way to represent an image or idea or feeling. I am particular about using high quality archival materials including the pieces I custom design and frame.
