Description

Beebalm Burst is a beautiful wildflower in Wildwood Park, Radford City, Virginia. This flower looks like it is a color burst in gorgeous contrast with the green leaves.

My husband and I take a lot of walks through this park. He has been the floral and wildlife advisor of Wildwood Park for many years. I am amazed at his knowledge of the natural world that he taught himself.

On one of our visits to Pawleys Island, South Carolina he saw 93 species of birds in one weeks time. I saw about five. It is a lot of fun living with a dedicated naturalist. I have learned a lot from him. He has around 30,000 bird siting files that will be on E-Bird at Cornell University. He hopes these records will be helpful to future scientists.

My paintings have been seen throughout the United States in national, international, and group shows. I have won numerous awards, including awards from Dorothy Gillespie, May Stevens, Frank Webb, and Daniel Greene. My paintings were in two group shows on Broadway and my biography is included in The Original Marquis Who's Who in America.

I taught in the Art Department of Radford University for a twenty years as Assistant professor. I taught Art Appreciation, Drawing, Oil Painting, Watercolor painting, Foundations, and served as Gallery Director for one year.I received many compliments on my course curriculum.

I enjoyed working with Art and Design students. My Art Appreciation course was hands-on and Oftentimes I had students that were not enrolled ask me if they could sit in for a class. I have fond memories of those guest students! What a great compliment for me!

My best-selling print, "Reaching Out", was selected from over three million works of art on Fine Art America to be on the set of The Mindy Project and I appeared with my artwork on The Hour of Joy on FoxTV out of Roanoke on March 10th 2013.

I live to paint and it is important to me to find homes for all of my creations. I have originals and prints in twenty-four states, Canada, Germany, Russia, and Australia. I want to cover the world with my art!

I have over thirty years experience shipping my artwork with no returns - just compliments!
