I’ve always been a creative person, having worked with a multitude of mediums within the artistic world.  Every time I thought about attempting oil painting the challenge felt too daunting.  One day, on a whim, I decided to just go for it.  I bought the paints, I bought the canvas, I just needed an easel.   

On the very same day I was scouring Marketplace for a used easel, I met with a friend who had just been stood up by a buyer for the easel she just happened to have in her trunk.  Serendipity?  It sure seems that way!  It was just after my 40th birthday when I discovered what calls to me; my love of oil painting and I have been painting ever since.

If it were not for the love, support and encouragement of my three fantastic kids and my amazing husband, I don’t know if I would have had the courage to share my art with all of you. I often wonder about where I’d be if I had started earlier but, hey, I didn’t. I am here now and that’s what matters!

I hope you find that ‘thing’ that calls to you in life.  Never let time be your obstacle.
