Bio

I’ve been a painter for many years and settled on pastels as a medium of choice. My style is fun and whimsical and my favorite subject has been food. My professional background in graphics and printing made it a logical move to make cards from my images. I like the accessibility of the cards, being able to hold something in your hands, send it to someone who may appreciate it.

I haven’t had the time or space to paint much since becoming a mom to two great little boys. I’ve been doing a bit of sewing and found myself completely addicted to fabric. My Etsy shop will soon feature a few pillows and purses that I’ve been making lately.

Both with painting and sewing, I’m largely self-taught but I take classes whenever I can to connect with others who like to do what I like to do. I can’t imagine my life without some kind of creative outlet.
