I have great memories from my youth taking back country drives through Southern California with my architect father looking for the perfect old barn, Victorian house or Spanish Mission to stop for a quick watercolor sketch.

Later in life I relocated to Northern Nevada with my husband and three young children.  With the Sierra Mountains to the West and high desert to the East, wildlife, wild horses, and ranching are inspirations for my work.

I enjoy working in Watercolor and Oil mediums and strive to learn new techniques to improve the quality of the art I create. Through the years I have entered juried shows and have been successful winning many first place through honorable mention awards at state and local competitions.

When I’m not painting I enjoy spending time with family, canoeing with my husband, going on walks with our rescue greyhound and riding my horse.

Thank you for wanting to know more about me and if you have any questions you can reach me on my contact page.
