Artist Statement/Bio

"I have had a passion for art since I was very young. I stopped taking art classes after 8th grade, against my art teacher’s advice, as I wanted to pursue other opportunities in high school.

When I was raising my three children, I sewed a lot of their clothing complete with appliqués, lace and other trims and some of mine. That morphed into quilt making as they grew older.

Many quilts and quilted wall hangings later, I started creating greeting cards with mixed media around 2005. First to send to family members as notes (My mother-in-law, who was also very creative, was my biggest fan) and now I am living my dream of selling handcrafted cards in Cedar Rapids and West Liberty.

I began my marriage journey in 1979 with my loving, supportive husband, Craig, in the Wilton/Atalissa/West Liberty area and now reside in Cedar Rapids."
