Mountains or beach? That's a tough one for me, but as you can see, I love the mountains, especially the Blue Ridge Mountains just a short drive away. Living in the Carolinas, we also love a good beach trip, preferably Kiawah, with its Spanish moss-filled trails. Painting, especially landscapes, brings me such joy! I do my best to capture the beauty I see in my unique style. I hope my art sparks memories of your own favorite trips or special places.

I studied Art and Education and graduated with a Bachelors degree from Calvin University. I have always loved art and loved every minute of my art history classes and studio time. After teaching for many years I have recently been able to focus on my own painting career full time.

My Favorite artists are Andrew Wyeth and Edward Hopper! I could study their work for days!
