Welcome to my Web Site.

Let me tell you a little something about myself

I was born in Colorado and grew up in New Mexico, where I
was surrounded by scenic beauty and majestic wild life.
At the present I live in Northeastern PA. with my husband
and our precious Lab, Shadow. Here I continue to enjoy an
abundance of wild life. We live on a  2+ acres of wooded land
in Dyberry where the deer, birds, wild turkeys and black bear
are bountiful.

My earlier works reflected the use of acrylics, oils and
watercolors, which lead me to my primary medium. Pastels.
They have become my passion.  
Favorite subject to paint are animals and I always start with
the eyes.
That is the soul of the animal and of my work.


Along with my pastels I also enjoy doing  paintings on
feathers, mushrooms and purses
.  
Originals as well as a few select limited editions,number and
signed Giclee prints available.
