About the Artist

I started painting on our backyard fence in 2016 for fun and as a stress release from my job as a physician. I have a MFA that I haven't used in many years, and my husband had been bugging me to do creative things since medical school. I picked up my old Rembrandt pastels left over from the 80’s to use on the fence, because there weren’t enough colors in the sidewalk chalk box! This doodling on the fence has evolved into a part time career as an artist. I also still work almost full-time as an Urgent Care physician.

 Most of my older works are pastel paintings on reclaimed fence wood, which gives the painting a rustic feel.  Recently, I've shifted from  working on wood to painting on paper, exploring other genres.
