"I am an artist that loves to learn and I feel like every time I come in contact with paint I have a new discovery. I believe for the most part, a painting is a conversation between the artist and the canvas that they allow you to ease drop in on. Owning a piece of art is like owning a piece of that artist. I still get a little high when someone wants to buy one of my paintings.

I attribute my, "Art as a Career," choice to five people who have been positive voices and great helps in my life. First of all, my friend Glen who has been a source of encouragement for years, some of the Mobile local artist that have sewn into my life are my long time friends Jan Horton and Rebecca McIntyre who always encouraged me, Randy Moberg, what can I say, I weep when I watch him paint or look at his creations. Last but far from least is Heather Pettersen, definitely a driving force in my life. Thank you all for helping me find and pursue my place in this world.

Those of you who have bought pieces from me, I thank you very much for supporting the arts and believing in me and what I do!!!!"
