I am a multimedia artist, and dogs are my subjects! I create my art with acrylic paints on canvas and gesso board, and create digital paintings which are then reproduced onto many items- from canvas and archival quality watercolor paper, to wearable items. I have also used fabric dyes, inks, and paints to create wearable art on women's tops, jeans, and shoulder bags.
I enjoy sharing the process I go through to create my art, so you will often find photos here of works in progress as well as finished pieces.

I am an animal lover, and still work as a Certified Master Groomer with 25 years experience. I feel this intimate, day-to-day experience with dogs has helped immensely with portraying them in my artwork.
I get great satisfaction from creating art for people, and it's wonderful to see their reaction when it is of their own beloved dog.
I own three furry 'kids' at the moment, two German Shorthaired Pointers and one Maltese mix. All are rescues, and all are adored by their 'mom'!
I enjoy attending dog shows, and training and showing in obedience trials.
I guess I will always be a 'dog nut', and if you are reading this blog, you probably are, too! :-)
