A lifelong resident of Northern California and a visual person by nature, I have always found inspiration in the beauty of my surroundings. It is a blessing to be in such close proximity to rivers, mountains, and the ocean. Having been an art lover since early childhood, painting has always been a great love but something that I rarely had time to do.
With a degree in design, I have worked in freelance graphics for 25 years, which helped to satisfy my compulsion to make things pretty while keeping busy with my children and husband and dogs and endless projects. With the loss of my husband several years ago I suddenly found myself a void to fill and watercolor called my name. Painting saved me and has become an addiction and a joy. I am obsessed with color and light, and the beautiful movement of water and pigment, and hope to share the joy it brings me in my art.
