A love of Crafting, Painting and Gardening converge
I was a stay at home mom (not really: kids activities, volunteering and cub scout leader). I first began gardening, and helped create gardens on the family farm, then started painting on gourds we grew for a local craft store. I took lessons in One Stroke painting and joined the National Society of Decorative painters, travelling all over the country to studios and conventions to learn from all the best painting instructors. Then I began to sell in more shops in New Jersey and Vermont.
I began teaching very actively, and co-ran a studio, and have taught One Stroke and folk art and other decorative painting techniques, including vinegar graining furniture. Additionally I have recently created pottery on my own wheel and have a kiln so be sure to look for the pottery section added to my store!!
Currently most work sells online due to time constraints. I can reach many more people who are looking for what I can do for them. My many wonderful customers are the heart of what I do; their excitement and contentment help stoke my creative fires. They keep me painting with a smile on my face and a joy knowing I can help make their lives a bit more beautiful. I currently only sell online.
To all of my great customers, I say thank you for allowing me to help you, and you will never know how many times your feedback postings have lifted my spirits and makes any challenges well worth it!
