to also pause, reflect, and remember<br />
what is important so that life<br />
doesn’t simply pass us by. She feels<br />
compelled to create work that<br />
offers the viewer an invitation to<br />
slow down and take in the details<br />
of places and things that otherwise<br />
go unnoticed as we rush by<br />
in our fast-paced daily lives. Her<br />
work has been shown and sold<br />
throughout the U.S., Canada, and<br />
the U.K. She received the Curators<br />
Award of Merit, <strong>for</strong> work that<br />
Serenity, 12x16, Oil on Cradles Canvas<br />
best captures the essence of Earth<br />
Day, <strong>for</strong> her painting “A State of Separation.” In March of <strong>2023</strong>, she was awarded Cowgirl <strong>Art</strong>ists of<br />
America’s Member of the Year award. She currently resides in rural Columbia County, Oregon, and<br />
is working on an ongoing series of paintings, inspired by her observations and experiences from<br />
various road-trip adventures.<br />
