I was born in Big Flat, Arkansas and attended school there at an early age. My family moved first to Kansas, and then to California where I spent most of my early life. My husband and I moved back to Mountain View, Arkansas in 1992 where I have lived since.

While in California I developed an interest in painting, but was generally busy in the medical field as a nurse in both hospital and home care environments. I did, however, find time to attend art classes near my Camarilla home, and learned some the the basic procedures and techniques for painting.

Having settled in Mountain View with no more nursing responsibilities, I became interested in painting and joined the Mountain View Art Guild (MVAG). I have been a member since 1994, and once served on the Executive Committee with chairmanship responsibility for publicity; and now for history.

During my MVAG membership of 14 years I finished several paintings that line the walls of our home on Highway 87. Mediums used for these paintings include oil, acrylic and watercolor; my favorite is oil. I have selected several of the paintings for viewing on this website; hope you enjoy them!
