The first capitol building for the state of Iowa - now called "Old Cap," it sits in the center of the University of Iowa's pentacrest. It has a gold dome on top which I didn't have room for, but I mostly remember the day it caught on fire - the painters were not being very smart up there.
Nothing makes me happier than drawing. If I could do it 24 hours a day, I would. The line is the thing - so much expression, feeling and energy can be put into ONE line. Then there is the color, the feeling of a fully loaded brush of paint going onto a canvas or watercolor paper - no feeling like that IN THE WORLD. I am fortunate to make my living as an illustrator with a double life as a painter and artist finding her own narrative in the work. Stay tuned. And thank you for visiting!
