What’s your creative specialty?

Painting

How did you start? 

I studied studio art at Wake Forest University. It took me many years to commit to painting as a full time job but am so glad I finally took the plunge. 

How do you gain/gather inspiration? What do you do to get recharged? 

I am constantly taking note of interesting color combinations -- from nature, or design magazines and even my kids' toys. Taking a few days away from the studio is always helpful when I feel burn out approaching. 

What’s your favorite thing about creating? 

The way it allows you to express your innermost feeling is a way that is visible to others. 

What advice would you give your younger creative self?
