Since moving to Bonaire, Georgia (2000), I have been a freelance artist. I have two illustrations in the Macon Sketch Book, and I illustrated the book ,‘Bullmina the Courageous Bulldog’. I am also working on illustrations in three other books, one being a sequel to the Bullmina book. I also do wildlife paintings, and pet portraiture.

I was the Corresponding Secretary for the Fine Art Society of Middle Georgia for two years, and I am now their recording secretary.

I am an art instructor and receptionist for the Skills Development Center on Robins AFB in Warner Robins, teaching watercolor, drawing, and acrylic.

I enjoy doing animals, and in the mid-eighties, (while in Antioch, California) and most of the nineties (while in San Antonio, Texas) worked in animal hospitals as a veterinarian's assistant and receptionist. While there, I got to study the animal muscle structure, mostly of cats and dogs, and some birds, but horses are my favorite to paint. I used to own horses, until I went to college (1983-1986 Academy Of Arts College, San Francisco, CA ,BFA in Illustration.) where I did not have time for them. My favorite class during college was location drawing with Bill Shields. We went all over San Francisco drawing in a sketch book with an ink pen. That will build your confidence in drawing! Now most of my time is spent with my family. I have two boys, and they both enjoy drawing. My husband works also at Robins AFB. I now enjoy teaching, painting animal portraits, and illustrating.
