About
Why do I create?
Simply, because I have so much to say. Words don’t always express my emotions. Hopefully, people will connect with my art where ever they are in their life.

A little history about the artist…
I grew up around creative people. My mom was a wiz with fabric, food and interior design. My dad had the gift of being able to string words together into expressive poetry. So, I was always doing something artistic, whether it was musical, visual or theatrical.
After I married and had kids that rekindled my love for all things creative. As life moved into the 2000s, home studios became a thing whether it was music, websites, or writing. I stayed creative by volunteering and instructing an art program in my childrens grade school. I also taught myself how to create basic websites. I realized then I enjoyed putting together pieces of a project to create the whole picture. That lead me to start writing song lyrics with a country songwriter, Jim Femino. He taught me about the in-depth creative process. His words and mentoring were invaluable to my creative journey. He’s no longer with us, but I can still hear his voice when I write.
Today, I’m finishing up my Graphic Design degree and putting my art out into the world. Good or bad, hopefully you will all let me know, as I travel this journey with you.
Check out my blog post from October 1, 2021 where I realized I was “All In” as an artist.
