..I was born in Kearney, Nebraska and spent the early portion of my life in central U.S.A. as my family moved frequently. My chosen profession was nursing and a large part of my adult life was spent as an R.N. in various areas of the medical field, only taking time off to raise a family. We moved often because my husband was in the military and this afforded me the chance to see much of the world and travel extensively. I was blessed to have to chance to visit many world famous art museums and see the work several of the artists that I greatly admire. I have always loved art and I made it a point to see as much of it as possible while overseas!

 

 

.Largely self taught, I started painting in the 80's and enjoyed every opportunity to "do art" that time permitted at that point in my life. My subject matter changed frequently depending upon the period of my life and my concerns at the time. Recently retired, I now have the time to devote to various artistic endeavors and enjoy every minute of it!
