Artist Statement: Pencil and paper were my best friends growing up! I spent countless hours with them. I have had no formal training, so consider myself a perpetual student learning from observation. The awesome beauty of God's creation offers unending inspiration. In the fall of 2019, I was inspired to try paint after browsing some art magazines and I have found that I'm really in love with color!  I believe color, in all it's glorious vibrancy, speaks to us all.
