Profile
I am a wife and mother. I’ve been married 25 years to my wonderful husband. We have been blessed with four children 2 boys and 2 girls ranging in age from 13 to 21.
My love for photography began by taking pictures of our garden to display the different stages of growth of the produce for the Ogden Farmers Market where we had a booth and sold the harvest from our garden.
In between the pictures of the garden, I took other pictures. I showed my sister my pictures . She suggested that I put some on Red Bubble, Her daughter, Serenity had an account here (she is a very talented photographer)
I joined in September of 2008 and have loved the community and groups and social part of red bubble. I have been able to get feedback and encouragement. I have loved seeing the world through the eyes of photographers in all parts of the world
I am learning but I am still a beginner …. I am very open to constructive criticism and suggestions. So feel free to comment on how I could improve.
I have a large variety of photographs from flowers to sunsets, to pets and people, landscapes, clouds
You can also visit my profile on Fine Art America for optional pricing if the photograph you want isn’t there send an email with your request of photograph or art and I can arrange a sale

Peaceful is her voice
and solitude is found
My wildflower --the lessons
We can shrivel up or drink in the sun, use what water there is and become a beautiful bouquet that blesses those around us. /
Pain and Exhaustion and dis-ease
Exhaustion and pain live just beneath my skin / they penetrate muscle, bone, and all within I reach deep within and fight with both fists / to make them leave but they continue to exist
Doors : a dedication to a University Graduate
Doors open, Doors close. Some Doors have windows, some a small peep hole, and some no window at all.
Just another day or an extraordinary day.... you choose
What kind of day will you have?
Oh to soar above the clouds
Oh to soar high above the clouds, where skies are bright, clear / to leave behind all the darkness, the cold winds and pelting rain
