In 1999, I graduated from The Evergreen State College with a BFA and an emphasis in Visual Arts. I went on to completely ignore my degree, and have spent the last 6 years teaching preschool and working as an office girl for a local Fine Arts and Antiques Auction House in Portland, Oregon.

I have always known that art should be a part of my life, but until recently, I wasn't prepared to actively pursue art as a way of life. In March of 2005, I started drawing and experimenting with color again - I think I had forgotten how much I LOVE color. I learned how to design a website. I let the creative blood inch it's way back into my veins and then it happened...I gave birth to Sugar Lily!

This is my project. My baby. The thing I want to put my heart and soul into. I hope that it brings as much joy to others, as it has already brought to me in it's young life.
