Welcome to my Website

I have studied art almost all of my life. The influence, love, and appreciation of the rural lifestyle is evident in my work.

I paint outdoors on a regular basis at my ranch that is nestled in the headwaters of Palo Duro Canyon in Texas where my husband and I reside. Many of my friends and family spend time at our home, the Creekwood Ranch. My home contains a large studio where art has been created for over 50 years. Stone fireplaces, rock steps and a large art library make it a warm and inviting place during a cold winter.

Horses and cattle surround us in the spring. The Prairie Dog Town Fork of the Red River is often the sight of my painting and my husband Tom fishing in the summer evenings. Family, friends, and all of God's creations produce a rich pallet of creation for me to share with the world.

  These beautiful thoroughbreds pasture with a sweet donkey.  Sometimes they race and the donkey is smart enough to always be on the inside of the laps they run!

I am having such an adventure with portraits.  This is a friend who is a superb horseman and great instructor.  He was kind enough to pose for me.
