Your Instructor
Mixed media is my "genre." I love being able to create a piece using a variety of materials and items. Watercolor, acrylic, paper, marker, pencils, and all the other fun supplies in my art room allow me tons of inspiration and project ideas that keep me busy and happy!
I lead a blissfully happy life that I'm very grateful for. Every. Single. Day. I'm married to my best friend and soul mate that I still have a huge crush on after being together for so long. I'm surrounded by adorable little kids who make me laugh every day with their craziness and spontaneity. I've also been lucky enough to be a mama to 2 pugs and 1 English bulldog that all have special needs but give our family such unconditional love, that it just fills my heart every day.
Everyone is an artist. Jump on in and just give it a try!
