Born in NE Ohio, USA, she is the youngest of 6
children. Showing an advanced talent for art at a
very young age, she was enrolled in Cleveland's
museum of art's specially gifted classes. Having
this background in classical art she attended the
avant garde Cooper school of Art and developed a
kindred heart toward fantasy. She honed her
talent at Cleveland State University and graduated
with a four year degree in Arts.
As a full time artist, her medium of choice is Watercolor. Her colorful works have been
published in children's books, magazines and commercial merchandise. Her art has also
been sought after around the world by private art collectors.
She now resides in Kent, Ohio where she owns her own studio. Still an avid learner, she
participates in watercolor studies with known artists. She sells her artwork on EBay
under name of Sunnyba8e and she also accepts offers for commissioned work.
