'As a child, I loved to look at picture books and also loved to draw, so it was no surprise when I became a book illustrator. Working for Doubleday Dell, Simon and Schuster and other New York publishers, I created covers for mystery novels, new novels, and young adult books and illustrated a few children’s books - my favorite being all 12 covers of “The Black Stallion.” Computer generated illustration began to edge into the market around the time I started to change not only my medium, from pastel to oils but also my goals.

Working for Doubleday Dell, Simon and Schuster and other New York publishers, I created covers for mystery novels, new novels, and young adult books and illustrated a few children’s books - my favorite being all 12 covers of “The Black Stallion.” Computer generated illustration began to edge into the market around the time I started to change not only my medium, from pastel to oils but also my goals. After 18 years of illustration, I had decided to become a historic painter which would lead to experiences I never could have foreseen. It began with a series which included my first George Washington paintings. Ten artists were commissioned by the Silvers Corporation to create ten paintings each on the history of Fredericksburg Virginia . This series is now owned by Mary Washington College and hang in their museum.
As this project finished up, a British fundraiser for the preservation of the Hougemont Farm, the center piece in the Battle of Waterloo, was sent in my direction. After meeting we decided that I would do four paintings on the Battle of Waterloo for them. In the spring of 2011, my husband and I flew to Belgium for research on La HayeSainte, the farm I would be painting and a photo shoot with reenactors portraying the French unit that fought there the3rd EME. We returned to this incredible place in 2014 to shoot models for the next two paintings, this time meeting up with German reenactors who portrayed the Kings German Legion. The results were that the print sale of these and the other five European artists work helped restore the buildings for the 200th Anniversary of the Battle of Waterloo. When Mount Vernon in Virginia commissioned a painting the following year, I didn’t realize at the time of the unveiling that I would continue painting George Washington, this time for private collectors, or that these images would start a body of work White Historic Art would be able to share with educators around the country. The stories of the men and women of the Eighteenth Century continue to intrigue me and hopefully stir the curiosity of people that see my paintings into learning more about our country’s origins.' ...
