My studio is located on a beautiful and colorful, pond. Here inspiration and nature unite to inspire my portrait and painting work as well and my art students. A lifetime passion of drawing and painting people and pets led me to become a portrait artist. I take great pleasure drawing and painting portraits that depict the subject's personality in interesting compositions Additionally I teach oil and pastel painting to adults (16+) as well as children ages 7 to 16. Children learn to draw and paint in fun and instructional classes. Classes for all level of artists are held both online and in-person.
