As a child I was always drawn to art but never attempted much other than a paint by number.  My Mom was an artist and did beautiful portraits and I was totally in awe of that.

 

When I retired from teaching high school in 2012, we started going to Florida as snowbirds.  I started taking some at classes at the Sebastian River Art Club and met some wondeful artists who are good friends today.

 

One thing led to another and I was addicted.  I have now painted and sold hundreds of pieces, as well as given many gifts.

 

I am now a member of the Vero Beach Art Club where we now reside full time; and I am also Treasurer of the Lagoon Artisans of Barefoot Bay.  My art is available at local shows, galleries and by custom ordering.
