I was born in, and still live in Minnesota. I have worked in healthcare for many years with seniors and noticed how difficult it was for them to color some of the more detailed color books that are on the market. I decided to draw a color book that would be less complicated for them, yet they can still enjoy the fun experience of coloring and creating their own masterpiece. I have painted pictures for people since I was a child. Through the many years, I have painted pictures for weddings, birthdays and pictures that were of special meaning for people. I love flowers, animals and all the beauty that nature holds. As I approach retirement, I now have free time to work on my art work fulltime, something I have always wanted to do.
