WHO WE ARE
Becoming the new Grandma Moses....everyone has a dream

Becoming The New Grandma Moses...Everyone Has A Dream.
I trained at The Maryland Institute College of Art, now recognized as MICA. I graduated with a BA in Illustration in 1969, before computers.
I did work most of my adult life as a graphic artist, first for the Board of Education, then a tech company called IITRI, and finally for Johns Hopkins University/ APL Physics Department. I retired in 2010.
It was not until 2016 that I went back to my roots and began to paint in watercolors. My first efforts were Christmas presents to everyone in my family. When COVID hit, I challenged myself to draw every day, which turned into a beautiful business of drawing pets. My mediums include pencil, ink, watercolor sticks for sketches. Large paintings are watercolor.
My goal is to bring my audience the opportunity to have a unique painting of your pets or loved ones.

WORKS OF ART
This is dummy copy. It is not meant to be read. It has been placed here solely to demonstrate the look and feel of finished, typeset text. Only for show. He who searches for meaning here will be sorely disappointed. These words are here to provide the reader with a basic impression of how actual text will appear in its final presentation. Think of them merely as actors on a paper stage, in a performance devoid of content yet rich in form. That being the case, there is really no point in your continuing to read them. After all, you have many other things you should be doing. Who's paying you to waste this time, anyway This is dummy copy. It's Greek to you. Unless, of course, you're Greek,
