About Us

About Our Art

Hello I am a retired RN who always had a passion for artwork.  I loved drawing for as long as I can remember.  I always admired watercolors and started painting in 2009, and have been painting something new every week.  I have seen myself improve every year and now feel ready to offer my images to the public.  My favorite subject is portrait and figures.  Candid shots are the best!  HoweverI love to paint everything. I have recently Feb 2019 been juried into the Best of Missouri Hands.  This is a very prestigious award and I am very honored and humbled to have received this.  I have been in several juried shows at Annual St. Louis Watercolor Society Juried shows (2019 2020 2021 2016, 2015, 2014 and 2013 ).  I also was juried into a watercolor show at St Charles Art Foundry in 2013.  I have been asked to be a guest artist July 2017 at Missouri Artist on Main in Old town St. Charles.  This past year 2018 I placed 3rd at The Hazelwood Community Art Fair in portraits.  I also placed 3rd August 2018 at the James Eagen Center Northside Art Association. Please check my paintings out here.  I have a varied subject matter, which I will be adding to often
