My family and I have lived in Ruidoso and Ruidoso Downs for 44 years.

I retired from the Ruidoso Schools in 1996. Working with the children I learned I had a talent for art that had gone undiscovered. The school system assigned me as an art instructor during most of my time in the district. I often learned along with the children, and even won a quality education award in 1990 for my work with the children in art.

After retirement in 2003, I was introduced to gourd art. Well, that was what I was looking for and did not know it. I love working with gourds. I have found my niche in the art community.
