After 17 years of producing commercials, independent films and videos, basically making other people’s dreams come true, I decided it was finally time to focus on my own passion of drawing and painting, specifically for children.

I currently take drawing and painting classes at Austin Fine Arts and have a Fine Arts degree from California College of Arts and Crafts.

I love to travel and read children’s books. My children have a wonderful library of books, so that I can study (and write it off).

I live in the country with my extremely supportive husband, Mark, who wants to be a chef, nine-year old Samantha who wants to be an actress and a writer, and one-year old Mia who likes to eat and sleep. We also share the land with Jasmine the cat, Great Dane Cosmo, normal dog Charlie and many deer that are not invited.

I work in watercolor, pen and ink, oil, acrylic and pastels. Please check out my website to see what I’ve been up to for all these years.
