Take a drive out to the country and discover this artist in her “happy place”. This is a full working studio with 3 rooms and a hallway gallery of whimsical and inspirational art. See where this artist creates her illustrations which then become cards, coloring books, mugs, metal prints, puzzles and more. Check out another room where she frames her work, creates mugs, coasters, metal prints, puzzles, and any other products she can add her art to. The third room and the hallway gallery showcase the finished artwork and art pieces that have all been created in her studio.
