Scenic Design
I am a painter who paints for pleasure. My art is featured in my home and in the homes of the people I love. I work in the mediums of watercolor, acrylics, and oil. Below is a gallery of some of my work, unfortunately, the colors are never quite accurate. They look so much better in person.

I trained in scenic design as well as directing and have been fortunate enough to work with a cadre of talented scenic artists, master carpenters, and stage crews. I no longer produce the official designs or craft the model, but I usually have a good idea of how a production could be well staged with the right design to start with. I love the collaboration with good designers and artists.

I have held the role of costume mistress and have been thankful that in my education years, I was able to take home economics sewing classes. They have served me well. As a director, I work closely with the costumers and often participate in the procurement and sometimes the stitching.
I also sew, do fabric art, and incorporate it in my home decorating.

This hobby of mine has grown. Most of my pieces have been offered as gifts. I also frequently donate pieces to be offered at auction to raise monies for arts programs.
Someday I might set up an Etsy store. I have many sets premade, and I have a back stock of over 500 pair of earrings... this is what I do to pass time during quiet hours.
