Passionately Sharing My Voice & Message Through Art

I created Winifred Street in 2010 out of a desire to share with others my passion for words, lyrics, quotes, affirmations, and messages. As an avid collector of all things vintage, timeworn, rusty and gently loved, I set off to connect the two into a meaningful and mindful art adventure. Growing up on Winifred Street in a small town in Southwestern Minnesota, I watched my mom create magic out scraps of this and that while raising 10 kids and working. I was inspired and many decades later decided to see what kind of magic I could create. Thanks Mom!

I love collage and have completely embraced the imperfection of this art form. Creating layer upon layer of curiosity is my daily dose of love. When I see people peering closer and closer into one of my pieces, I know they got the message. They see what I saw and that's a very good thing. My passion is to create art with a message or reminder that kick starts our hearts and souls into thinking deeply about love, peace, joy, kindness, passion, connection and how we can make our world smile. If only for a minute, it's all worthwhile.

I have been honored and privileged to see my art published in Somerset Apprentice, Somerset Studio Gallery, and Stampers Sampler Magazines as well as on the Brave Girls Club website and a local television spot on Sonoran Living. I love my adventure!
