Along with being an artist, I am also involved in acting in Community Theater. Community Theater is a step between college and Professional Theater.  It's all volunteer and so much fun.  I love acting and telling stories.  I have designed sets, costumes and provided artwork for many a play.

Many years ago now we went to Poland with our friends.  My grandfather was half Polish and half Ukrainian.  I loved Poland.  It was beautiful.  I loved the cities and how people had lush gardens on their terraces.  I was inspired by those and the architecture to paint the following painting. 

I entered this watercolor painting in an auction to raise money for a small artist association I was a member of.  It was one of the first paintings I sold. That was super exciting.  

If you would like a print of this beautiful watercolor, they are available on my Etsy shop.
