Painting and photography have always been a love of mine. My paintings are usually acrylics, watercolors, poster paints, enamels, or a mixture of any or all.
For my photography I use a very inexpensive Fujifilm Finepix 8.3 mp digital camera.
I have no formal training and am self-taught in my artwork as well as my computer work in Photoshop, Apophysis7x, Picasa, Publisher, and a number of other programs that I occasionally use for my artwork.
I design magazine ads, simple webpages (Dreamweaver), flyers, and brochures. Business portrait shots and commissioned art works are also a part of my work life.
Painting, sketching, writing, playing the piano, and reading are all as essential as breathing for me. I’ve always had some form of the arts in my life. It’s just LIFE!
I love my family dearly, which includes my husband, 3 children, 4 grandchildren, my daughters by choice (the mothers’ of my grandchildren) and our dog Buddy.


Thanks for any input or constructive criticism.
