Welcome

I was born and raised in Ashland,WI, on the southern shore of Lake Superior. I developed my interest in art while attending summer school art programs that took me to the area's state parks and the Apostle Islands for sketching. It wasn't until later that I discovered my love of painting.

I have studied with many of the areas accomplished artists, as well as nationally known artists.

I am a member of the Northstar Watermedia Society and a Lifetime Member of the Minnesota Watercolor Society. 

I have entered Juried Art Shows through the years and have won "Best of Show", Peoples Choice, Second Place, Members Awards, Honorable Mention and Award of Merit. I have also been excepted to the State Fair Art Show.
