I create art to connect with my heart. To stay in a space that keeps me present and to let my heart spill out on canvas.

It is a heart filled journey. My favorite art to paint is art that touches other hearts in some way. I use acrylics and am self taught. Often, it is Angels, sometimes birds…those whimsical souls frolicking about... often sight unseen. Watching over us. I love to paint them and give them to people I love. The process of creating art is a healing gift you give to yourself and others. Art isn’t about perfection. It’s about letting go of it.
Where do you find inspiration?In everyday life. Mostly In people around me who inspire me. I often feel called to paint angels and spread a little love and peace in this crazy world. I surprise people and pop them in the mail. I have a little secret goal. To send an angel painting to every person who I have loved or who I know is facing something challenging. It keeps me painting, reminds me of friendships that were precious in different seasons in life. Spread the love through art. Everyone's going through something.
What would you do with $25,000?I don't know. I could sure use it! I’m on SS and retired. I’d give some to my kids to help with their mortgages! And then either buy a refrigerator and take a little vacation with my husband or both. And buy more art supplies and send more angels to long lost friends.
