I paint with acrylics and watercolors; draw; and design graphics. I enjoy participating in the shows at the Bellefonte Art Museum, and had a solo show featuring my surreal cat paintings. I have illustrated four children's books and have an online comic featuring friends, family and pets. I grew up in South Park, a suburb of Pittsburgh, and was voted the Female Best Artist of 1996 in South Park High School. I earned my Bachelor's Degree in FIne Art with a Major in Graphic Design and a Minor in Drawing. I was invited and participated in the Honors Show with 3 piece 5' drawings of waves with an original poem written around the edge. I won the most popular art from the Art Alliance Recycled Show with my dragon sculpture. I reside in Pleasant Gap, PA with my supportive husband, Paul and our teenagers, Emma and Tristan. We also have two adorable cats named Fishy and Carmella that are my furry muses.
