INTERESTS
My favorite interests include photography, listening to many kinds of music, watching videos, and writing letters. I also enjoy reading, spending time outside and spending time with my computer and the Internet. I also collect items relating to Polar bears and I also collect Beanie babies relating to Minnesota wildlife. One of the many great things with my art is all the wonderful people I have met at the classes, art shows, and stopping in at the gallery. It is an honor to have people coming year after year to see my artwork or bring their relatives or friends to enjoy my work I'll always treasure the friendships that I've made over the years.
