I've been a ballet costume designer and seamstress for many years, and now I'm shifting gears, so I finally get to sew things for myself! (Hello quilts!!!!)
I paint and draw, and I plan to get my master's in visual arts in a few years.

A recently finished 14" x 20" oil painting for my mother. This is a peace rose from her heirloom rose bush.

Weeks 1-8 of this year's quilt. It's been nice, but it won't be long until it's too hot again.

Weeks 1-6 of this year's quilt. There will be nine of these square star blocks.
This past week the high was pretty much the same 81-82 degrees every day.

Week 1!!!! The high temperatures are on the left point, and the lows are on the right. Six weeks will make one star block.

This is what's on my easel right now. A purple moon and a peace rose. The peace rose will be a gift for my mother. She has a beautiful peace rose bush that came from my father's childhood home. I took this photo the last time I visited when it was in full bloom.
