Thank you for visiting.
Only one more day in September, and then it’s my favorite month! I love fall colors, crisp air, colorful trees and the start of the season to get cozy. (and maybe a bit spooky…)
I had this little cat shown here back in the 1970’s. I sold it on Etsy to someone who was so very happy to get it. I have quite a collection of random things…and sometimes it’s good to let go. Isn’t that what they say about Autumn; “it’s nature’s way of showing us it’s good to let things go…”? I think that is true. Not everything is meant to be kept forever.
I hope your new month gets off to a good start!

about
Nature
The natural world influences the type of things I create more than anything else. I am fascinated with it. I use nature both as subject matter and materials. I am always looking for small natural items that would transform into a miniature environment.
Craft
• Paintings – traditional and digital
• Illustrations
• Home Decor & Fashion
• Collage and Upcycling
Garden
I grow lavender and other herbs and flowers, as well as some food. The garden is an inspiration to me in so many ways.
The area where I live, close to the town of Boone, NC, is a small farming area. I live on a NC Century Family Farm. This designation was procured by my Father in the 1980’s after he worked with the state of North Carolina to designate it as such. Even though Boone has changed so much, thankfully there are still people here dedicated to rural life and working with nature.
I will be updating this website weekly, so please check in often for seasonal art and photography. Check out the PORTFOLIO link (top and bottom of this page) to see more of my work.
