NEW Good Nap on a Full Belly
This is my neighbors cat named Rusty. He's a pretty big boy! One day I was taking the boys for a walk and he was rolling around on the sidewalk. Of course I had to stick around to get the perfect picture of him. He was like a big rolly polly! I took the photo and as I was looking at it the first thing I thought of was, "Man the big belly is probably full of some birdies!" That's where my idea for this painting came from.
A life of creation!

Drawing has been my passion since I was a little girl but I did not do my first in color until I was 17. I actually did not start selling my work until July 2009 and from there it has become great success. I am now an Award Winning Artist winning 7 awards my first two years.
My inspirations
Drawing has been my passion since I was a little girl but I did not do my first in color until I was 17. I actually did not pursue my career in art until my first win of the Loveland Valentine Limited Edition Valentine Card win for 2008 and from there it became a great success. I am now an Award Winning Artist winning 12 awards so far. But an award is nothing compared to the smile I can put on many faces. That in itself is priceless.
My inspiration comes from my everyday life. I have four wonderful boys and a great husband. Along with two crazy, but lovable cats, a big 95lb lab and a 5lb shi-poo diva. I carry my camera with me at all times because you never know what my eight kids will do next to inspire me for my next painting idea.
I believe that everyone is an artist. Art is everywhere. From being a dentist to what clothes you wear. Even the way you walk, talk, or even the way you drink your coffee. "Life is the perfect canvas, an endless inspiration." ~ Jamie Morath
