(Textured) Roses Caress my Cheek Painting

Thank you for your interest in my profile! I have been mesmorized with art, painting, drawing and photography ever since I can remember. I used to beg my parents for drawing lessons when I was only five years old. I have integrated art into my life for over thirty years. I am a professional photographer and work out of a lovely art studio in my 1776 farmhouse. I love my rescue dogs, horseback riding, hiking, playing the harp and piano, cooking gourmet vegetarian meals and listening to international music. I also teach French and Spanish to middle school and high school students. One of my favorite past times is wandering through a museum and getting inspired by so many magnificent works. Each piece has a story. Each piece has the heart of the artist inside. I believe that we are all connected throughout the ages through art. Art is a powerful form of self-expression and is the window into all of our souls.
