I have been an artist since I was old enough to color in a coloring book. I have tried many mediums but presently work mostly with pen and ink and acrylic, sometimes combining the two. I love creating beauty and emotion. I worked for 20 years with elementary children sharing my love of art with them but am now retired and can pursue my own art full time. It is exciting to sell a piece of art, but I really look at it like I am finding homes for my creations. It means so much to me to bring joy to others through my art. I sometimes do commision pieces but never do portraits. I am an expressive and impressionistic artist - not a photo realist. I am primarily self-taught. I enjoy experimenting until I get the effect I want. Thank you for your interest! I welcome questions and comments. Annie
