I was born and raised in Middletown, Ohio, where I studied art from the time I was 9 years old. I also attended the Arts Institute of Pittsburgh, the Ohio Visual Art Institute, and Miami University, graduating with an Associates in Business Art.
I have been residing with my husband, daughter and our many feline pets in the beautiful Amish Country of Wooster, Ohio since 1988., refining my talents and catering to the building industry. This includes: the wooden replicas for private individuals and organizations, pen & ink, and color renderings for private individuals and commercial builders. I also do work with animal portraits, wall murals, sign design, logo design, and advertising design. Some of the other art forms I’ve been creating in the past several years are gourd art, street chalk drawing, and stained glass mosaic.
While I do consider myself a contract artist, I do find I have more and more opportunity to create for myself. My main goal in life is to be grateful for the gifts the Lord has given me, use them for His glory, and to love my friends and family with all my heart.
Found this while digging threw my old photos - me in my 10th grade art class. (1977)
“We must except that this creative pulse within us is God’s creative pulse itself.”
