When did you realize you loved art and wanted to be ‘an artist? I had a lot of encouragement from my therapist first of all, but what what really set me into gear was a visit to a neighbors house. Her home was full of beautiful art and she had created it all......and had never had a lesson. I went online and found the Creative Arts Center and found a fantastic teacher, Kathleen dello Stritto and met some wonderful people who I continue to paint with at our studio. It is now in it’s 5th year and is called Studio Art & Soul and is located in The Cedars part of town. Who has been the greatest influence from your past to mentor you to this career?My parents are my staunchest allies. In addition, my teachers, friends, and fellow artists are always encouraging me. Who is your mentor today, or another artist you admire and why? There are many: All of the people at Studio Art & Soul, namely Karen Rike, Grant Schirpik, Michael Terstriep, Linda Greer, Carol Morgan, and Suzy Moritz. Former members, Sharon Hodges, Kay Wyne and Gail Kirkham. My teachers: Kathleen dello Stritto, Carol Marine, and Elizabeth Locke. I admire the work of Laurie Pace, Kimberly Conrad and many many others. What is your favorite surface to paint on? Describe it if you make it yourself. Just plain old canvas for me. I do like to paint BIG, however. My favorite size at the moment is 72x48. There is something liberating about having such a large surface to begin with.....and I find them much more forgiving. What brand of paints do you use? Primarily, but not limited to Sennelier. Do you have a favorite color palette? Definitely. The colors of New Mexico most always show up in my paintings, whether landscapes or abstracts. I do force myself on occasion, to try other palettes. What is your favorite color in your closet? Just one???? Chinese Lake, Purples, Turquoise to name a few. What subject appears the most in your paintings and why? Mountains and Big skies, I suppose. I visit New Mexico frequently and take a lot of my inspiration from there. How often do you paint? How many hours a week? This varies widely. I am a night owl, so it is not uncommon for me to see the sun come up when I am in the groove. Of late, I have been in the middle of moving and it has cut into my paint time significantly. I am almost finished, however, and have many new idea percolating in my mind. How would you like to be remembered? Wow! That is a tough one. I want to be recognized as an artist and this is an ongoing process. I want to be remembered as a person who was good at heart and was loved by friends and family.

Artist of Texas
I began painting over 20 years ago and my paintings have developed over time into capturing some of the beauty that can be found in everyday life to canvas. Through my paintings I hope to convey to the viewer the feel of a time or place rather than a photographic representation. My goal ultimately is to add something of value to the world that we live in. I hope that I have.
