I was born in Wisconsin and love this state. It is so beautiful. My favorite place to be is by Lake Michigan. It is like looking at the ocean and is really awe inspiring.
My love of nature has inspired me to illustrate animals and birds from a young age. I also love to illustrate small children doing silly things or showing the gentle moments in their lives. I work in watercolor with some colored pencil to highlight areas.
I have been drawing since I was a very young child and knew that was what I wanted to do with my life. I live with my husband and 17 year old son with loads of animals to keep us company.
