IntroductionSelf-taught artist who has a habit of making art dolls, drawing, and painting on fabric. I have been making all types of different art since I have been forming memories. I am especially drawn to celtic and folk art themes, as well as native/ethnic art. Here is a fun history lesson for those of Celtic descent. I just discovered that I am a 'hillbilly'. The original term referred to the Scots that settled in the the Appalachian Mountain areas (Tennessee, Kentucky, West Virgina). Many were dissenters that supported William of Orange. They lived in the mountains and hills, and supported William (Billy)- thus you have the term "hillbilly".
