My interest in art began as a child in my hometown of St. Louis. On Saturdays I took lessons at the local museum and continued my studies with a variety of classes. My middle years were very involved with family, and my work as a legal secretary left little time for participation in art activities.
After retirement the fun really started with my first loves of painting, antiques and horses. I have continued my education by taking numerous classes and I feel there is always something to learn, even from my mistakes.
My main painting subject is still life, frequently using antiques from my home and flowers from my garden. I also find old houses to be a wonderful subject of interest. I believe Monet painted into his nineties and I hope that I am that fortunate.
