An artist at heart, I'm finally getting back to creating after providing for my family as a nurse.
MessageMy most formal art education was from my high school art teacher, Mrs. Smith, in Ramsey NJ. She gave me the best foundation in many mediums, art history and appreciation, and the confidence to pursue my passion. My college art experience wasn't what I expected or needed at the time, so I pursued other interests, became a mom and a nurse to provide for them. I love all mediums, but have settled on pastels for now. I'm sure I'll take out my old oils at some point and see if I still have the goods in that medium as well. I have pretty good "muscle memory" when it comes to art, and I am thrilled to have the opportunities I have in order to work them out on a regular basis now that I am retired from nursing.
Statement
"I didn't expect to recover...but since I did, I consider that I'm living on borrowed time. Every day that dawns is a gift to me and I take it in that way. I accept it gratefully without looking beyond it." ~ Henri Matisse
