I started painting in 2005 because a friend told me to "do something for yourself" and I had always wanted to try watercolors. Now I wonder how I ever lived without this passion. Besides watercolors, I dabble in my home studio with pen and ink, ink resist and mono prints. I live in Santa Paula, CA with my rescue companion Sally. I often wonder how I ever lived without her too!
