theColor Splash Art School
I have been using art as an expression of myself since I was a child. Growing up with parents who encouraged this fact helped me grow as an artist. I later received my Bachelor of Fine Art degree in Studio Painting from the University of Texas in Arlington, Texas. I now practice my craft in my home studio that I share with my husband. Here I work and teach students how to express themselves through their artwork. I do my art to let my audience experience freedom from the everyday and just for a time allow my viewers to be outside of themselves, if only for the time it takes to look at my painting. This in retrospect also gives me the same freedom when I work on my artwork. I am a giver by nature and feel this is my way to give to others. My inspiration comes from other artists who pursue their work. I use nature and everyday life to inspire me with my subject matter.
