CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to make a living making art......its going ok so far.....

ABOUT ME

Let's see, I'm a cheerful and charming individual with a propensity for old books and vintage clothes.
I make intaglio prints and watercolors, collages and drawings. I sew and stitch and generally do anything arty and fun.
I try very hard to see the nice qualities in everyone, and am mostly successful.
I like sweet things best.
I also love to clean things, a tad neurotically at times, but mostly in a good way.
I studied fairytales and illustration in college and continue to study comics, children's books and dark fairy tales for adults.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything is better when you read books!
