me? quite simple...a mom of 2 boys. a sister to 3...and many friends. creating is my passion, it is what moves my soul. i look at life as a journey and everything along the way makes the journey worth while. my desire to create came at an early age...while i sat by my mother's side at the table while she was painting...she helps inspire my creativity. there have been others along the way that have played a role as well, my children, sisters, dad, and a few special friends one in paticular... i hope this site will motivate you to create your life not just accept what is given. "Life isn't about finding yourself, It's about creating yourself."
