Pop Art Minis . . . little pieces of art in fun and fantastical themes and all the colors of the rainbow! Snap, Crackle and Popping with Magic! 

I love creating...anything! I turn even the simplest task into an artistic and creative endeavor.  So I would definitely say that I have an artsy side that sometimes takes over in all aspects of my life...and I LOVE it!  I've always got sometime buzzing around in my head that just can't wait to materialize on paper, canvas or even a wall or two!  I love creating fun and fantastical themes in bright, bold colors and expressive lines . . . . in an illustrative style!  I also have a softer side that sometimes comes out in my watercolor paintings, although with my Pop Art Minis "art-venture" the softer side has been somewhat subdued by the more bold and colorful side of my artistic personality! :)  Oh, and when I'm not creating my oil pastel drawings you can find me dipping candles, crafting and creating with anything that sparkles and working on the product development of some amazing dollies. Or as I like to say,  "I'm the stylist to the dolls".

What mediums do you prefer to work in?
Currently my favorite medium to work in is oil pastels. I also love watercolors, pen & ink.
Who are your favorite artists and why do they inspire you?
I have always loved Impressionism and post Impressionism! Monet, Renoir, Degas, VanGogh, Cassat. I love their use of color and subject matter and the fact that they didn't follow all the rules . . . they did what moved them to create! The important use of color, movement and light! And Pop Artists would be another favorite movement/inspiration! Pop Culture . . . anything goes as far as subject! Taking the ordinary and transforming it into an art.
What gives you inspiration?
I am inspired by everyday things, animals, birds, people, seasons! I love whimsy and fun . . . things that make people smile or laugh. My art has always seemed to have a somewhat illustrative look and that's ok with me. I do it because it makes me happy and hope that others can find something fun and joyful to take away from it as well.
