Introduction	I've always loved art from early childhood. I've also enjoyed photography for well over 35 years. In the early 80's I sketched portraits from photographs on canvas paper, often on my lunchbreak at work. I began my own business in 1990 doing portrait and wedding photography and videography. I've taught beginner watercolor since July 2000. I also accept landscape commissions from photo's in oil, acrylic or watercolor.
Interests	Oil, acrylic, watercolor, painting, writing, reading, photography, genealogy, and anything paranormal.
Favorite music	Soft Rock, 80's hits etc.
Favorite books	Just finished reading "When Ghosts Speak", by Mary Ann Winkowski, and now I'm reading about UFO's in Shirley Maclain's book "Sage-Ing While Age-Ing".

When you hesitate before hitting snooze on your alarm clock, are you being lazy?

No, it's because I like the song, but most of the time I can sleep right through my alarm! :)
