Maybe it’s because I’m getting older, maybe
it’s because I take more time for ME, perhaps its more confidence,
or maybe it’s just plain more wisdom. Maybe even menopause has
played a part as well, lol, but it’s been long overdue.
Since before I can remember I have always drawn, colored or doodled.
I could sit for hours and get lost in whatever it was I was creating.
After graduating from Islands Consolidated, a small school located on
Long Island, NS, I went on to college to obtain a certificate in Graphic
Art & Design. I was intrigued by the new mediums I was being
introduced to. So many wonderful things I had yet to explore. Dark
room work, designing packaging for products and learning airbrush
techniques.
I retired my paints over 20 years ago, but have found the need to once
again be creative. Inspired by growing up on the Islands, I recall many
memories that transport me to another time, a peaceful place.
When painting I am in my happy place. I still love to explore new mediums
and styles. I have learned you are never too old to try new things!
I hope you enjoy the results of my passion and desire to create.
