I am continuously drawn to the magic of animals - especially cats and corvids- and I use my artwork to help support my favorite animal sanctuaries and wildlife conservation organizations.

In addition to a lifetime of sketching and general noodling about; I also studied formally for several years at the Mitchell School of Fine Art in Baltimore, MD. 

I also hold a B.A. in History from St. Mary's College of Maryland and a Masters of Arts in Teaching  from Johns Hopkins University.

My love of history and old places (especially dark and gothic ones) can be seen in my work - and almost always includes a cat. :)

In addition to my personal illustration work, I have also had the privilege of illustrating two books by author and renowned animal communicator Joan Ranquet: Emotional Freedom Technique for Animals (Findhorn Press) and Animal Chakra Healing (Findhorn Press).

I currently live in the deliciously moody Pacific Northwest with my children, two dogs, two cats, four guinea pigs, and a horse.
