About the artist: For years I've been baking, painting & creating things mostly as gifts for friends and family, and occasionally when they request for something specific. It has been only recently that the fire has been lit and I've finally decided that I want to pursue my passions more aggressively.

I have worked in the same industry for 16+ years (since high school). It is very stressful and the hours are very long. I have 4 beautiful daughters, ranging in ages from 3 to 17. Their father is in the ARMY and has already done 2 tours overseas, 18 months in Iraq & 11 months in Afghanistan. So with that being said, I try to make the most of my free time, what little I have.

Over the years I've learned about myself that I can do many things; and I can do them very well, and usually with little difficulty. I'll look at something and say "I can make that" or "I can do that"; and I do with a fair amount of ease... It almost always turns out pretty good, sprinkled with an amazing or fantastic, as well as the occasional need to try that over. So I've realized if I can get those results with the little amount of time I given myself to practice what I do, think of what I can do if I really take the time to ameliorate the situation...I could turn out stunning, sprinkled with wondrous and awe-inspiring. That is what I'm working towards now.
