About the Artist

I’m a full-time artist living in the farm country of northern Louisiana with my husband, three cats and seven dogs (it's okay, we have lots of room!). I've sold my art to collectors all over the USA, Canada, UK, Australia and Europe. I’m greatly inspired by the visual blessings which surround me daily, and my art is an expression of the joy and gratitude I have for this life God has granted me. I use the highest quality materials to ensure that my finished paintings are of a quality that will satisfy the most discerning collector. With each painting I challenge myself to grow as an artist, continually seeking to improve my skills and techniques with the hope that my work will steadily move toward excellence. I love learning, and I love painting; I’ll never stop doing either as long as I’m able!

Several of my paintings, including step-by-step demos of two of them, are published in Acrylic Secrets by UK artist/author Gill Barron, available worldwide, and distributed in the US by Reader’s Digest Books.

If you’d like to know more about me and my artwork, please visit my website and my art blog (you’ll find the links on my ME page), where you can see paintings in progress, stories and inspiration behind these paintings, as well as other artists’comments about my art.
