Biography:
I first began to paint in college. After finishing my graduate program in architecture, I worked for several years as a graphic designer at the University of Minnesota. I left that job to raise my children, but when they grew older I took up painting again. After encountering an encouraging amount of success with my art, I opened up a studio in the NE Minneapolis Arts District.

Artist Statement:
In my work I use familiar images and vibrant colors to create tales of mystery and whimsy. To that end, I frequently use the juxtaposition of elements that seemingly would not belong together to create a higher sense of beauty, playfulness and drama that I hope will inspire a desire for stewardship of nature. Despite my use of vivacious and bold colors, my paintings have a soothing quality to them, due in part to cool and comforting hues that predominate the pictures.
