I’ve never been someone who adapted well to change. I’m a person who craves adventure and new challenges but I also like feeling comfortable and safe. I tend to keep one foot in my comfort zone and the other dangling over the cliff of the unknown.
RiverArts Studio Tour 2018

My Art History
The other day at dinner a friend asked me whether I ever imagined that my career would take the turn it has taken. I didn't even hesitate to answer the question. "No. I never imagined this." My path to becoming a working artist has not been straightforward and there have been many forks and twists on the road to where I am now. So it got me thinking about those forks and twists--everyone has a history and I really believe that I had to go through all the changes and turns in my life to get to this spot.
How to Guarantee a Great Year in 2018
Every year I choose a word that becomes a mantra to take me through the next twelve months. I write that word down and try to manifest it.

This time I took the lessons from last year to take me into 2018.
