I was born and raised in Maryland, (USA). Graduated from Towson High School from 1980. Went into Graphics/Advertising/ Printing for 18 years, although my passion was always painting Fantasy Art with watercolors. So in the spring of 2000 without any formal training, I am a self taught painter.

It has been a wild Journey so far. Since 2000 when I began “Fairie Forest Watercolors” I have experienced a so much wonder thru my Art. In the beginning it was about painting pretty Fairy Pictures. Now with each piece I try to dig deeper and step out of my comfort zones. When I painted “Lady Bug – Koko Komani Spirit” She was quite a challenge – and is the painting I am most proud of. My hope is to keep learning and growing as the years and paintings go by. This Fairy has had a Faery dream come true. Thank you to all of you who have supported my fairy world.

When the process began my dream was to paint "Fairies". I had no idea what wonderful experiences would lie ahead.
