This is the part where I share a little of my story...
About Me
I always wanted to be an artist. I would stand on the paint aisle of the art store and ask God why He hadn't made me one…
I would daydream of what it would be like to hold that favorite brush or wear that well-worn smock. But, for some reason, I couldn't get my heart to connect with my head.
Until one day, my husband decided to help me connect the dots. Armed with an art kit from a local store, he told me to just have fun.
It took me several weeks to even relax enough to enjoy it, and I absolutely hated it at first.
But, I soon came to realize that art is more about a desire to create than it is a natural talent...
And I had enough desire to learn everything else.
The rest is history, and as far as I'm concerned, only the beginning…
God had made me an artist, and no one was more surprised than me.
My Inspiration
God’s Word is a very large part of my life. And I find that it influences every thing I do...including my art.
When I am painting for myself, I paint what inspires me... and I often find God’s Word hidden within the meaning of the painting. You can often see that meaning when you purchase one of my paintings. Many of them come with a story of the inspiration & meaning behind the art.
However, when I am painting for you, we do not have to include Scripture in the painting or the story. That is completely up to you, and I respect & value your right to believe differently than me.
My art is about life.
The messy, the beautiful, the complicated... and I would be love to see if your story & my art would go well together...
So, ask me about my commission work.
I only take a select few a year, and I usually have a waiting list, but it never hurts to ask.
