After retiring as an art teacher for 40 years, I finally decided to do what I had always wanted to do. I leased a room, made a studio, and signed up for a painting class to refresh my techniques. As they say, “The rest is history.”

My work is often on display in the valley. My work is on display at the WHAM art gallery all year. I had a one-woman show at Sisao Gallery on Grand in Phoenix. I have been selected to show at Olney Gallery in Phoenix three different times. I am a member of Arizona Artists Guild, WHAM Gallery, Ground Floor Artists, and ArtThena, a group of women artists from across the Phoenix valley.

Many of my paintings are transferred onto large scarves! They are for sell art the WHAM Gallery gift shop throughout the year. love doing this and seeing people wear my scarves makes me so happy. I think the scarves are beautiful. I am proud of them and they look gorgeous on those who wear them. I get complements on them and that also makes me happy.

I paint with acrylics in a non-objective, spontaneous and expressive manner using the elements and principles of design. Geometry was a favorite subject in school and I find that it influences my art. I create from the inside, and I love having no rules.
