About Me



Layout by CoolChaser

Growing up I had an extensive career in the horse industry. I started out working with Quarter Horses. In 1984 I was hired by the Circle L Ranch in Germany to come over and help them train and show quarter horses. Stayed until the European Championships at the end of the season. Then I went to Landesreitschile-Hoya for a month learning dressage and jumping. When I came back to the US I started riding hunter/jumpers and eventually I was grooming and riding three day eventers. Eventually I got married and became a mom and left the horse industry to raise my three wonderful children. It was during those years that I became an artist... and well.. here I am!

Graphite is the medium I work in.
