I love my job.  I am a watercolor painter and an art quilter.  I work from my home studio doing "what" pleases me the most, "when" it pleases me. 

Almost 40 years ago what started as a hobby soom became an obsession, then grew into a profession as my paintings began winning awards and attracting gallery representation and buyers. 

Primarily I am a self-taught painter.My watercolor paintings on both paper and fabric(art quilts)have won over 400 awards in regional, national and international juried exhibits. I am an elected signature member of several International Painting Societies (see web site for complete listing),teach workshops on a limited basis,and judge regional and national exhibitions. My work has been featured in 11 books about watercolor painting and art quilts, many magazine and webzine articles, plus Marquis Publications: "Who's Who in American Art", "Who's Who in America", and "Who's Who of American Women."

I welcome people to visit my work on my web site, in several galleries, and at my home studiio by appointment.  Commissions are accepted.
