About Me

My photo
I have been drawing all my life and have painted in watercolor, acrylic and mixed media for almost 40 years. I do commission work (painting, drawing, graphic design/logos), a few art festivals, and give private lessons to children in watercolor, drawing and mixed media. I enjoy spending time with my grandchildren, especially teaching/encouraging them in some of my hobbies/interests so they may also express their own creativity as they go through life. I also crochet, embroider, cross stitch, sew, quilt, garden, cook, read and play with my dogs and horses. My husband and I attend many classic car events throughout the year together where we show his 1961 Corvette.

The Painted Quilt



Original Watercolor,
Collection of Artist.

This was so much fun to paint! I first put torn pieces of paper doilies on my watercolor paper by applying Gesso over them. After it all dried I drew the quilt design onto the watercolor paper. Then I began my painting. If you look very closely you can see the design of the doilies coming through the paint.

this painting was destroyed when we lost our home to a fire in 2014. I have decided to paint this for a barn quilt. - artist
