I am a self-taught artist, who has taken many classes and workshops to improve my art and learn new techniques. I strongly believe that everyone is born creative; they just need a spark to light their flame. I am very passionate about my art and could not imagine having a life without “doing art”. I paint mainly in watercolor and acrylics; but have also used oils. My other passions are collage, mixed media, fiber arts, and beads. I design, make, and sell my own jewelry and sometimes make my own beads out of glass or clay.I have sold my work through various shops and galleries for the past 14 yrs., and presently teach classes at bead shops and art centers, as well as private classes in my home.

Thought for the Day

"The artist is nothing without the gift, but the gift is nothing without the work."
- Emile Zola, French novelist
Food for Thought
2007-09-13
This is one of my favorite quotes and I thought other artists might appreciate it if they haven't heard it:
"A man who works with his hands is a laborer; a man who works with his hands and his brain is a craftsman; but a man who works with his hands and his brain and his heart, is an artist."
by Louis Nizer (American lawyer, 1902-1994)
