Introduction | I've been captivated by ART since I was about 9 years old. Because my family lived overseas for the first ten years of my life and because we moved about every two years (Holland, Malaysia, Japan, Italy, England) I learned at an early age to keep myself occupied. The best ways to do this were to read, write, or draw. While we were overseas I was lucky enough to be able to visit some of the finest museums in the world, and they felt like home to me with all the beautiful creations from the master spirits of this planet. These excursions left me hungry for more, so as I grew older, I continued to visit museums wherever I found myself (New York, California, Colorado, Arizona, Alaska, Chicago, Pennsylvania, etc.). Now that my children are grown and out doing their thing in the world, I find I have more time to devote to my artwork, beadwork, and writing, which are pure joy. Thanks for checking in, stay in touch! |
