My journey into the world of art began in childhood painting scenery on paper plates with mom at the kitchen table and, of course, watching Bob Ross! ​Over the years, art has often taken a backseat. As my college career shifted from commercial art to music...violin performance to be exact.. a minor in graphic design, as well as owning/running our music school for fifteen years and homeschooling our two amazing kids helped keep my creative side alive...even if it was just on life support! Art has repeatedly been a therapeutic outlet for me during difficult times - this was especially true after the loss of our first daughter and then later with a cancer diagnosis and treatment that didn't go as planned. I dove in head first into the thing that has helped me release tension so many times. Art. I started painting on Christmas bulbs and selling them local boutiques. Then as doors opened, I walked through them. Since then, I've met so many wonderful people and had experiences I wouldn't have dreamed possible. The Pensacola area is brimming with artists and photographers. And it's wonderful to see the collaboration and support for each other and from the community in general. I have been met with encouragement at every turn. I feel so blessed that I have truly been given "joy in my mourning." I'm able to do what I love and pray that I can share that joy with you.
