Awarding Journey

My paintings have taken me on this incredible journey. I had done artwork as a teen and had even won awards for it.  I continued to paint as a young mother, but I did pen and inks with watercolor washes.  I even sold some. But then I went to law school and had a law career in Baltimore.

After being retired for a number of years, my husband gave me the gift that has become my passion.  He gave me an art class for my birthday.  Once I started painting there was just no stopping me.

I am so fortunate to not only have found my passion, but to have been rewarded for it.  I have won many awards for my paintings and also had paintings accepted into more and more prestigious competitions, where just being accepted is an honor. Honestly, I cried when i got the phone calls saying i had won!  

This is a list of a few of the awards my paintings have won
