My Story
It started in Hico Popcorn Works, a store owned by my dear friend Donna in Hico, Texas in 2023. I had started watercoloring about 4 years before, focusing on flowers, still life, and pets my husband and I cared for in our dogsitting business. Donna asked me if I wanted to take my art a step further to be her store's resident artist for the Hico Art and Wine Festival on October 12, 2023. I had a great time painting and chatting with visitors and handed out a lot of business cards.
Since that day I have completed more than 30 commissioned paintings. Painting pets is very gratifying for me - I love doing it, and clients always share stories of how meaningful the pets are in their lives. I still love painting nature and animals, but dog and cat portraits are special. I always try to capture the unique look of each pet that conveys the love and affection they have in life.
About me
I am a 3rd generation Texan from "The Golden Triangle" of East Texas. In my early life, I taught myself to play guitar, created a couple of music groups in high school, loved to jam with friends and taught pre-school music. Later, I started Texana Designs - a rubber stamp company with Texas-themed stamps. In my present life, I am a wife, mother, grandmother Mimi, professional dog sitter and watercolorist. In my spare time I love to hike, travel, garden, and read.
"Painting takes me to a place of peace and balance. My happy place."
