About Me

Mother. Artist. Dreamer. I'm a single mom working full-time, painting in my spare-time, and I always seem to be off in my own little world. I am really fond of my latest pieces. I love each one of them for their differences. I feel like they each have this uniqueness that's me. Everytime I paint, a part of my heart, soul, being, is there, visually. Parts of me that I thought I'd lost, or never knew I had. I want to share my art with others. I want people to FEEL something when view my work. But it also breaks my heart to think about selling them. I guess I feel like when I do, I'll be losing little bits of me. I am very attached to my paintings. I think maybe I'm just in a place in my life where I'm clinging to everything that makes me feel alive. I was recently told that near the end of my marriage, I became "a blank shell of a person". I don't want to be that way again. I need my art for several reasons. 1. I need to provide a better life for my daughter. and 2. It helps to remind me who I am, and why I needed to do the things that I've done. If you want to know more "about me" then take a look at the pieces I have posted. I hope to sometime soon have all my work up (and hopefully they'll be quality pictures... I hate looking at the pictures and not seeing them the way I see my paintings on my walls).
