Since childhood, I have loved drawing and photography. Having to work my way through engineering school, then marrying and having a family, left little time to develop my skills. As an empty nester dealing with multiple serious health issues, art came to my rescue for emotional and physical healing. I started with zentangle finding the complex images intriguing. Then I took classes in photography, acrylic, and watercolor to further develop my skills. I would like for my art to evoke emotional healing in others as it has for me.
