I'm originally a Montana girl, and graduated in Graphic Design from Montana State University, Bozeman. I still hike and snow ski when I can, but I traded pine needles for cactus needles and dropped my suitcase in Phoenix, Arizona.
I have stretched my creativity in several directions. I designed hand-painted pillows with beads and conversational charms for retail shops such as Barneys New York, Ballard Designs catalog, ABC Carpet & Home, and The American Craft Museum. One of my pillow designs also became a hand-painted canvas doll, the “Baby Angel,” celebrating individuality. Because of my obsession with hardware, I designed hardware & pearl bracelets & a belt that I named the "ziG". I sold these in shops and on-line. I continue to get orders for the ziG, if people see it on me. They are a great conversation piece!

Currently, I work with acrylic, ink, watercolor, collage, & colored pencils. I paint whimsical paintings, abstracts, wedding bouquets, & also draw realistic food, and landscapes with colored pencils. I have a line of prints, cards, calendars, and also mugs for furry rescues. I have also written & illustrated, with my abstract paintings, a kick-ass book called, 'Getting Your Magic Back'. It is about pushing through life's transitions, and is a simple, two lines per page, read. I have donated copies of my
book to the women's organization, "Fresh Start Women's Foundation". It's a wonderful organization that help women who help themselves, and provide them with education, resources, and support.

Rescue organizations are dear to my heart. I donate my art to various rescue organizations, and also paint commissioned work. I was Arizona Animal Welfare League's featured artist during 2018, and the featured artist the past five years, for Shemer Art Center
& Museum's "Furry Friends" event.
One of my paintings, "Lenny" with the cat
on his head, was part of a juried show for Arizona Artists Guild,
and displayed at the Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport.
I also have two paintings, "Hope" and "Joy" permanently
displayed at the Phoenix Banner Good Samaritan Medical Center.
With either my art, or my writing...my hope is to make you smile.
