Profile
Hello and Welcome. Nice of you to stop by. Thank You for Viewing my Paintings. I was born in Texas, raised and went to school in New Mexico and now I reside in Oregon since 1981.
Although, a self taught artist, my approach to art is of places remembered from her youth, a fond memory of animals and children, fuzzy puppy kisses, the whinny of a horse, meow of a cat, the feeling of sun on your face on a summer day.
I’m a retired person who took up painting again in 2007. I am painting fulltime now as it fills my time, I guess I don’t know how to actuallly retire and do nothing. I am a self taught painter that prefers to paint with oils although have tried other mediums. In my art I try to tell a story, each painting always has a story behind it, everyone is unique with its very own story. I’ll hope my paintings will speak to you….......
Please stop by to visit My Zazzle Store* which has original oil paintings that have been made into great usuable gift items
