One of my greatest joys is to convey the beauty of my surroundings through canvas, brush and a rich palette of both muted and bold hues. The rolling hills, blooming flowers, lush greenery and vibrant community markets of Southside Virginia continually inspire my work.

Flowers hold a special place in my heart-whether I’m growing them in my garden, gifting them to loved ones, or gathering them from local markets. Through painting, I love extending their life so their beauty can be enjoyed long after the petals have faded.

I am a watercolor and oil artist living in beautiful Southside Virginia with my husband, Phil, and our Shetland Sheepdog, Cassie. I come from a large family as one of eight children, and am a mother of three and “GiGi” to four wonderful grandchildren: Henry, Will, Rowan, and Remington. ❤️
