Painting is my solace, comfort and dream space.  It is the only time time stops and the world is quiet for me.

I hope everyone can find their dream space in life.

Partly it is my solace because I have ADHD and repetitive actions calm me and help me focus.

Growing up I drew during math classes, and I drew on the bottom of tables and on the inside of my mom;s closet doors.  Obviously something was trying to come out.  I  often made book reports with elaborate visual aids.  Once I made life size cut outs and brought them dressed in my parents clothes to accompany a book report for "The Swiss Family Robinson."

Finally at 30 I was lucky enough to start studio training to become an artist.  No more cut-out card board people! 

 The Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills, California carries a painting of mine as their in room postcard.  So, if you go there, open the drawer and take one!

Sunstone Vineyard and Winery in Santa Ynez carries posters of a painting done for them over a decade ago.  Plus, they make a mighty fine wine. 

I am life-long resident of Southern California who grew up in Redondo Beach. I live with my  film producer husband of 14 years live in Los Angeles with our daughter and son,  and son plus our one catand one bunny.
