I did my first painting when I was 7 years old. My dad was my first art teacher. He accompanied me as a child to teach me the correct ways of drawing and painting. This is the best thing you can teach a child who enjoys art. You have an edge on everyone else.

I used art as my therapy as a teen during my parent’s divorce and my Grandfathers death. It helped me heal in so many ways, it teaches you to look inward.

I took weekend classes in high school in Boston's finest schools. I was nominated as best artist in high school. I graduated and went to a 4 year Art School where I got a BA Degree in commercial art. After graduation, I worked a few commercial art jobs which I disliked. I was a “hands on” girl. I started my own business in 1998 in MA. I was astounded at the fact that I could actually get paid for what most people consider a hobby..

I moved to Florida in 2000 and had to start all over getting clients. I have been painting quite regularly now and I've been steady with referrals. My work is getting more defined and recognized everyday. There is nothing more satisfying than being wiped out from painting all day. I sleep great!
