Some fun questions for the inquiring minds...

• • • • •

What did you want to be when you grew up?

"For the longest time, I wanted to run off on adventures and be Pippi Longstocking! I When I realized I had to be me, I knew I wanted to be an artist. I was always sketching and doodling as a kid. I’d get in trouble for drawing instead of doing my homework. I doodle when I’m thinking too. I never could concentrate in class unless I was seriously taking notes or doodling as I was listening. I didn’t do many crafts as a child. I didn’t start doing crafty projects until I was pregnant with my daughter and the nesting hormones kicked in. I taught myself to crochet by making her first baby blanket with matching booties and bonnet. Then it was a needlepoint of Beatrix Potter’s Peter Rabbit, scrapbooking those baby photos, and it just grew from there. Now I’m a Professional CHA Designer member and create many craft projects, but I am starting to pursue my original dream of an artist and creating more art pieces as well. I'm working on finding the balance of having a foot in both industries. It is becoming easier as the two meld together in many ways."


Coke or Pepsi???

"Pepsi!"


What inspires you?

"Nature. I love the majestic world we live in and am always inspired by the smell of pine trees, the sound of the ocean, the view of a mountain ridge, and the quiet peace of a fresh snowfall."


What is the TOP thing to do on your "Bucket LIST"?


"I have ALWAYS wanted to visit Paris. It might be a little cliché,
but still a major bucket list item."

If you could print any phrase
on a T-shirt, what would it say?

"Seriously???"


If you could mold ANYTHING with
Amazing Mold Putty, what would it be?

"A lizard! They are everywhere in my backyard and I keep saying it would be so cool to mold one, but I can’t get one to hold still long enough and I don’t want to kill it."


What style of music gets your creative juices going?

"My style of music is quite eclectic, much like my art. I’m still a country girl at heart, but most don’t know that. Yes, I use to line dance and I can two-step. When driving by myself, it is hairband rock as loud as I can play it -- I’m still an 80’s girl. I also really like Urban Alternative music like Gavin Degraw and Mumford & Sons. When I’m jamming in the studio, you may hear any of these music types blaring out from my speakers!"
