Some details about me and my vision
Little would I have guessed that 16 years ago my love for the outdoors would translate into an art career. This career began after my first art class with local artist Dodie Petro. Through her love for art and and her nurturing influence, I began oil painting. Loudoun and surrounding counties are so beautiful to paint and I began to enjoy our scenery through painting out of doors. Presently and for the past 6 years, Penny Hauffe has guided my art fancy and I am always ready to capture my biking, hiking and sailing adventures on canvas.
During the Fall and Spring, you can often locate me painting in the gardens at Oatlands. Painting outdoors is relaxing and the best way for me to put on canvas what my senses perceive. During the winter months, I find great happiness painting countless hours in my Leesburg Home Studio.
Reflected in my work are scenes from Jackson Hole, Wyoming, Montana, the Grand Tetons, South Rim of the Grand Canyon, Monument Valley, Utah and the Red Rock Canyon, Arizona.
My oil paintings are displayed in local collections and at Loudoun Country Day School, where I substitute teach.
Some local art shows where my work was displayed are Oatlands, Millwood, Bluemont Fall Festival, Leesburg Community Church, Loudoun Country Day Family and Friends show, Highland School Spring Art Show, Prudential Carruthers Realty, Hamilton, Virginia, Flora and Fauna Franklin Park rt Show, and Western Loudoun Artist Studio Tour 2010.
I am formally trained as a nurse and hold a B.S.N. from the University of Virginia and a M.S.N. from the Medical College of Virginia.
