# About me

I am a 33 year old female, born in San Diego but lived in many places. I began my interest in arts and crafts very early on. I found the arts as my way to avoid darkness in my life and often i like childish and whimsical products.
I became more interested in studying art and techniques a few years ago. In high school I made Tennessee and Kentucky history by scoring the first female rushing touchdown in a male varsity football game, and while there I survived Chemistry class by doodling and started drawing portraits of my friends. Years later one of those students became the CNA over my handicap uncle, and she said that she and her mom loved the portrait and her mom still has it hanging in her home.

I became more interested in creating more products and finding my niche. I have an interest from watercolor to graphic arts. I do enjoy the use of pointilism and contrasts of black and white.

I was in the Army and was nearly paralyzed from a fall. Before I had major surgery for it I discovered Frida Khalo and her work that showed her dealing with her pain.
