Artist Bio: I was born in Missouri. At a very young age my family moved to California. Ever since I can remember I have been drawing or painting horses, wildlife, and western landscapes.
My family took a lot of vacations to the southwest region, camping at the Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon, Arches National Park, Monument Valley and other spectacular places. These all made an impression on a young girl. Art turned into a passion, and a life long love of capturing scenes on canvas.
Although I made a career in law enforcement instead of art, I always kept my hand at painting. I married, raised children and was fortunate to have horses to ride and go camping with in the mountains.
I was able to take college art classes and attend art workshops, but I am basically a self taught artist constantly striving to improve my skills. I've entered many state and local art shows, and have been awarded for my efforts. However it's not awards that I seek, but to share my art with people who enjoy paintings and appreciate the efforts artist put into the process of creating. Each painting has a story as the majority of my work is from my own photos or depth of my imagination.
I lived in California almost all my life, but two years ago my husband and I moved to Gardnerville NV where I continue to get outside to paint, and explore new areas of this desert landscape.
I paint primarily in Acrylic, Watercolor and Gouache (opaque watercolor). My style reflects the wide open spaces and the lone soul who appreciates the quiet solitude of the west.
