Time to Celebrate


My Dahlia painting "Peace" that I did some time ago has taken 1st place and BEST OF SHOW with the National Art Program at Bethesda Hospital in St. Paul. I am overjoyed and most grateful. Thank you to my Son Brent who encouraged me to do this and works for the Health East System.

About Me

My photo
As a child I began designing my own clothes while in 5th grade. Grandma let me use fabric from her stash and showed me how to use the treadle machine. My love for art and the creative began at that point, always having a current project of some kind. Painting has provided a unique creative outlet for me that I am thankful for, an exciting journey where there's always something new to learn.
