I LOVED painting this portrait and now plan to do many more. I was wary at first, but comfort zones suck!!

I lost a dear friend to breast cancer in 2007. Before she died, she told me I was a writer (I said, BS at the time) and she had me promise to write a book one day. This is my promise kept, reaching #2 on Amazon Canada’s bestseller list for Canadian Women’s fiction. At Amazon, B&N, & !ndigo online.

I started making art in 2020. I was furloughed for a few months and took Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain that was offered online, the brainchild of Dr. Betty Edwards. This elephant is the result of those classes.
‘Tis sold.
