Introduction | I was born in Atlanta, and currently reside in Decatur, Ga. - home of Emory University and the CDC, and only 3 miles from downtown Atlanta. In the past, I have given historical tours of Druid Hills (where the movie Driving Miss Daisy was based), and the Fox THeater, one of the last remaining atmospheric theaters! Yes, there are 111 stars that twinkle and clouds that move across the ceiling. While I work in advertising full time, placing time on both radio and television, I make sure I keep enough time for myself and pursue my passion of painting. My artwork is heavily layered with collage, acrylic paint, ink. Anything in the house is fair game, I've used coffee grounds, salt, sand, alcohol, the lists is endless. This results in a tactile surface. Rhythm is important too. I believe this is because I am both the daughter and granddaughter of piano tuners/rebuilders. Yes, we sometimes had over 10 pianos in the basement!!! So, come in and check out what is going on in my life, leave a comment |
