Becoming
a mixed media artist is not something that I dreamt about,
it is something that I stumbled upon and happen to love!
I realized my passion for creating inspirational art when
I fell in love with combining paint, colored pencils, oil
pastels, ink, stamps, paper and glue - creating a multi-layered
mosaic on canvas. The more I add, the better I like it!
I
start with a word or a phrase...an expression that touches
both the heart and soul...and create art based on the phrase.
I
believe art should speak to us. Art should assist in revealing
who we are, what we like and what we wish to become.
Oh...one more thing, since I am a wife to one and mother of four
little girls, my life revolves around constant chaos - is life
suppose to be any other way?!? It is through my own chaos, the
love from my family and friends and the experiences that I encounter
on a daily basis that drive my creativity. I feel it is important
that we all be reminded to live artfully, be thankful for who
we are and what we have, to be inspired on a daily basis and to
express ourselves through creativity. My goal is to make both
art and happiness a habit!
Variations
of my artwork can be found on Etsy
as well as Zazzle.

Custom
Family Trees
Art
Memorials (remembering
your loved ones, honoring a graduate or even signifying an anniversary)
These family trees make great gifts - for parents, grandparents
or yourself! My family trees incorporate the initials of each
family member* and can be created to match any room decor and/or
background color to meet your needs. Please
contact me for details if you wish to find out more information
regarding creating a family tree for you. (*mainly
immediate family members are on the canvases although larger
canvases can be created as requested to include as many
family members as you wish.)
The Art Memorials above incorporate the intials, date of birth,
date of passing as well any any colors, hobbies, interests, etc.
of a loved one that has been lost. The mini treasures are perfect
for gift giving and help family and close friends remember those
they lost an artfull way. Please contact me for details if you
wish to find out more information regarding an art memorial.
