Introduction As fifth of six siblings, I grew up exploring nature on the shoreline of a beautiful Minnesota Lake. Music, visual, industrial and performing arts ignited joy in my childhood home. After college, I worked as a commercial artist at a printing company in South Dakota. In Kansas, I grew into using digital tools as graphic designer. Pushing the envelope to develop and utilize God-given talent and skills, I delve into life with curiosity as an artist. My small business FreshRetroGallery offers family gifts at Etsy and Amazon Handmade. Family tree genealogy charts for ancestry and descendants, plus notebooks to jot down stories and health facts. Stationery and downloadable designs work together for DIY greetings and handmade art supplies. Parchment-style scrolls for special events such as birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, reunions, thank you notes of gratitude, love notes, and blank to write on for mementos, party favors, games and activities. I strive to balance work with walking, swimming, family, friends, entertainment, hobbies and church. The important need for evangelism in this world has me eager to share the LCMS Lutheran Christian faith through my Blogger Blogspot.
