I began studying watercolor 11
years ago and became hooked. I have studied at CMC with Ann Weaver and Edith
Polombi, the Anderson Ranch with Don Nice and have had summer workshops with
Kathy Goodall, Linda Loechen, Pat Conroy and with Raleigh Kinney, all
professional artists of watercolor. I have done workshops with Carta
O'Connor, AWS, NWS, Dan Burt, AWS, Judi Betts, AWS, Judy Moryis, AWS and have
studied with Catherine Anderson, AWS, NWS, and recently with Joye Moon.
I have had solo shows at the
Speakeasy Theatre in Breckenridge the summers of 2000 and 2004 and at
St.Luke's Episcopal Church in 2003. I have had several honorable mentions
and third place ribbons in Houston, TX. I show monthly at the WAS-H gallery
in Houston. I had a painting accepted and shown in hospitals and downtown
offices for two years by GMI, decorators for office buildings. I have shown
regularly at the Speakeasy Theatre in Breckenridge, the Silverthorne Library
with WOW and the Senior Center in Frisco. I belong to three watercolor
societies and have contributed my time and energies to Water media 2000 and
2003. I was Chairperson of the Women of Watercolor (WOW) for two consecutive
seasons and am an active member of that group. A painting was accepted in
the juried International show in Houston in 2003. In 2005 two paintings were
accepted in a juried show in the Texas statewide Lone Exhibit. This past
year, 2006, I had a painting juried into A&M University's Art Gallery which
was ultimately sold
Many of my paintings are with
collectors across the United States.
My goal is to be the best I can be in water media
and continue to grow in this medium, my passion.
