Originally from Brazoria County, Texas, I moved from Houston to Austin in 1992. After attending 5 different colleges over a 23-year period I managed to complete a degree in Studio Art in 2004, and completed a second bachelor’s degree in Fine Art in 2006, both from the University of Texas at Austin.
My husband and I live in Central Austin with one energetic rescued mutt.
ARTIST STATEMENT: The natural world is my muse. My experiences as a wife, mother, grandmother, and citizen of the world, influence my work. The concerns of our environment, man’s impact on his surroundings, and the future of the planet influence my subject choices. There is beauty in small moments; my goal is to capture the essence of those moments.
*yes, international! My work can been found in countries such as Belgium, Bulgaria, France, Japan, Spain and the U.K.
Recent work (L to R): Ode to O'keefe, monotype print; Save the Bees, etching; and Beneath the Blue, acrylic on canvas
