For years I have enjoyed the process of painting.  I guess I have my mom to thank for that.  She used to make my brother and I sit down at least once a year and paint.  It was simple really.  We would sit outside with our canvas and paints and just..well..paint.  These were fun times for all of us, little did my mom know she was igniting a spark in me that would last a lifetime.

Over the last 2 years I have taken the beginning steps of turning that spark into a business.  Encouraged by the personal sales to friends and family, I decided it was worth a shot.  Research and exploration peaked my interest in Etsy.  So with the purchase of a few "Dummie" books I have now opened my very own Etsy store, The Sparkling Hippie.

I have also been in the following art shows:

-Treasured Memories Gallery, Artist Debut

-2nd Friday Norman Art Walk

-Frederick Arts & Humanities Council Oyster Fry Showcase

-Choctaw Spring Fling Craft Show

-42nd Annual Arts 'N Action Juried Art Show


The painting to the right, "KeKe" was selected to be in Wild Woman Rising Magazine.
