The magic of nature is what inspires me. From the little hummingbirds that visit my garden in summer to the great horned owls heard throughout the winter nights...there is magic in the air!
In 2010 I discovered the art of Zentangle and began combining "tangling" with my fantasy drawings, thus "Fairy-Tangles™" was born. I received my Zentangle Teacher Certification in October 2011 at the 7th Zentangle Teacher Training Program held in Providence Rhode Island.
I am the author of "Paper Dolls Fashion Workshop" and a contributing author to The Art of Zentangle and The Art of Fashion Tangling, all published through Walter Foster Publishing. I recently illustrated two adult coloring books, Messages from Your Angels and Messages from The Fairies, both published through Hay House Publishing and available on Amazon. Currently I am working on a third coloring book, Messages from the Mermaids, that will be released in August of 2017.
Several years ago I started designing rubber stamps for Sweet Pea Stamps and then decided to release my designs as digital stamps and coloring sheets. Which are exclusively found here in my Etsy Shop.
I love to create. I enjoy drawing and painting as well as "tangling" and have taught art classes to adults and children as well as classes in jewelry making.
I enjoy biking, swimming, and gardening and of course painting and drawing...and do at least one if not all every day :)
