As a beach lover, I find so much inspiration in the reflection of sunlight on the water, the sound of the waves gently crashing on the shore, and the magnificent colors in a sunset. I enjoy painting abstracts with lots of texture, because everyone sees something different and unique in them.
My calling in life is creating and sharing art with my community. As an experienced art educator, I have taught in public & private schools, day cares, churches, retirement homes, assisted living and memory care facilities. I find it so joyful to watch a student create art with feeling. Art is so important and provides self care.
I am the owner of a freelance art education business called “icancreateart llc.”
