I am a salesperson by neccesity, a writer and photographer by chosen trade. I am a hard working single mother of 2 amazingly active boys. We, as a family, love to read, write, and create in general. We paint and draw and glue things together.
I draw inspiration from people, mostly. They fascinate me. I am completely run by emotions and so is my creative drive.

My inspiration ...
Life, and all the people in it! The beauty of nature, and the contrast of industry.
