Portraits - Illustrations - Design

Mission Statement:
My goal is to touch hearts, and spark imaginations
with vibrant-colorful art images that tell a story."

Starting at age seven, I never wanted to draw anything but faces- from wanting to impress my

very talented father, who was an accomplished fine painter and commercial artist by trade.

Years of sketching, observational study, along with my Dad’s mentoring, helped develop my

natural realistic style of drawing. As a freelance artist, my projects are always more fun than work.

And upon completion, gives me the pride of finishing on schedule, while producing my best work.

My portfolio displays a wide range of art, that includes: commissioned portraits, fine art, simple line art,

illustrations & character development for children's books. My background also includes, being the

Founder/CEO/Manufacturer of Star Kids Weekly Reward Charts for kids 2-8 years.

With a mass-market distribution throughout the United States and Canada. Which combined product

development, property licensing, as well as co-producing a kids 12-song music CD.

In addition, I love writing both fiction and non-fiction stories.

My husband and I have four adult children and seven grandchildren, and have enjoyed living in

Southern California most of our lives. In my free time, I can be found in my kitchen, covered with

maple syrup from making stacks of pancakes for our delightful grandchildren.
