About me

Gender Female
Location Guthrie, MN, United States
Introduction I'm an artist in very rural Northern MN. I work primarily with watercolor, but I also love to do pyrography, mostly on gourds. And like most artists, I can't pick up a supply catalog without finding at least 100 more things that I'd love to try. I have 3 kids and a very close, wonderful circle of family and friends that I share my life with. I'm an avid gardener and amateur photographer. I love to grow things and photograph them in order to have plenty of bright, beautiful pictures to work from during our long, cold winters up here! I also raise heirloom turkeys and keep a menagerie of other animals around our small farm. I have so many interests and I am constantly trying to find a way to keep them connected. I draw inspiration from everything - nature, emotions, people, situations, thoughts, God, artwork - everything. I hope you enjoy the musings and paintings that I post, and please feel free to comment and contribute your opinions and ideas! :)
