Art and design have been part of me since my youth. I began taking art classes, at an early age with drawing and painting classes at the Atelier Lach and at the Minneapolis Institute of Art.

Besides working in paint, pen, print and pastels, some years ago, I began taking courses in Surface Pattern Design. It’s amazing to layer my artwork into designs and patterns that can be printed on canvas, metal, notebooks, clothing, textiles and more. There is so much engagement and joy that art and design bring to our lives!

Throughout my life, I’ve lived and painted in Taos, New Mexico and on the Seacoast of New Hampshire for many years. Our family now lives in the woods in a tiny town on the St. Croix river outside of Minneapolis.
