From her earliest memories, the love of art and the passion of painting have been a great influence in her life. Growing up in a busy family of eight children, she learned hard work and was involved in many projects including a family produce business. Through these experiences she learned an appreciation for the beauty of the earth. Her artwork has sold internationally and she is always happy to hear from those who have been touched by her art.
