Welcome to a glimpse of my heART as it spills over onto a canvas, reflecting this beautiful world around us.  
     My hope and pleasure would be that the pieces bring joy, beauty, and encouragement to you and your loved ones!
     Come on in and take a look around!
 

     In the background of my life's canvas this small-town, North Dakota girl grew up in a loving family, near to lots of extended family, seasoned often with the teachings of God's Word and adventures that seeded an appreciation for the beauty He has created.  Crocus and berry picking, gardens, home cooked meals, fresh bread, camping, hiking, swimming, biking, watching creativity and hard work bringing beauty and productivity from bare beginnings.

     One day, with a wave a kind young man with eyes the color of the sky, stole my heart.  Today we reside in Montana on our family's 5th generation sheep ranch where we have been blessed to raise our three children, and generation 6 toddles about!  As our oldest launched into adulthood, I began to explore more painting and pencil work.   Beautiful memories, familiar scenes, heartfelt images when there are no words, and intriguing things find their way into my art. 

    I appreciate so much all who have encouraged me and shared their talents! If the art you see is a joy and perhaps a soul touch, I am blessed!
