After much thought into why I paint I would venture
to say it soothes my soul. I can immerse myself into this wonderful
creative world that God has created for us where everything
is beautiful and true. I was born into a family who loves and
appreciates art and all the women in my family were artists.
As a child I would spend summers with my Aunt Eva Pearl in Louisiana
who always had an art project ongoing and every afternoon, after
doing the household tasks, which included taking care of me,
she dedicated time for drawing, painting, or sculpture. I used
to observe her and loved being in her environment. Many, many
years later after she and I both had raised our families she
invited me to attend a watercolor workshop by Mary Barton and
that day changed my life. Today I draw and paint both in watercolor
and oils but it is watercolors that move me and excite me. I
absolutely love to paint and am so very fortunate to have a
loving husband that supports me in my art as well as a generous
boss who allows me time off to paint.
