Art is a way of life

About Me

Well, I love my kids, and grandson very much. The next love of mine is art. I have been drawing since I was 8, and fulfilled my goal to become an artist a few years ago. As a single mom it was a challenge to do the mom thing, the college thing, the job thing, and stay clean and sober, but I did it.

If you want to chat about art or sobriety, life or love just drop me a line.
