Artist Statement
I am a self- taught artist.
​
During the 1980’s I created graphic artwork for local businesses and government agencies.  My works were displayed at the Missoula Art Museum in the “ Facing Our State” and “ Art Revolution” shows, in 1989. During this time my work could also be seen at the state capital building in Helena and Missoula businesses and galleries.

From 1990- 2006 I took a hiatus from my art work to be involved in social work with the elderly and handicapped. In the fall of 2006 I picked up my pencils and brushes again, to find that I had not lost my creative touch. In fact I saw an improvement as I had gained patience and more sensitivity from my journey alongside humanity.

My initial medium was watercolors, but in 2008 I began working with pastels then added acrylics, gouache, ink and collage.  I have developed a line of greeting cards,” Dipper Cards”.

Working as an art instructor helps me to keep learning by experimenting with new techniques and mediums ,because of this you will see a wide range of styles in my work.

I love art, what would the world be without it?
