An Accidental Artist.
About Me
Married to Greg, Mom to Mason and Dog Mom to Sarge, Hank & Fin. In 2011, I found my way back to the creative place I loved as a child by accident, unless of course, you believe things happen for a reason…and I do.
A lifetime resident of North Carolina, I attended the same school, K-12, then graduated from NCSU and entered the workforce with CitySearch, then WRAL-TV. I’m a Lover of sunshine, summer, hot weather, laughter, dogs, family, friends, candy, painting, tennis and bright colors, especially yellow.
In 2011, everything changed when my daddy, a retired radiologist turned artist, passed away. He left behind a studio full of art supplies. I was married with a four year old dynamo son, four dogs, a full time job, a broken heart as I just lost my daddy and young, active mom was just diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Life was one big crisis in the middle of a crisis. Trying to juggle everything like Ringmaster in a circus tent, I left my career to help mom, but it was soon clear that she needed 24 hr care. We a number of options and landed at a special place for memory care. I started sorting through her house, and found my ADHD kept leading me back to a huge basement studio full of canvases, paint and my daddy’s spirit. I began to paint and it was the escape I needed. I painted a few gifts, then I started to get emails and calls about buying my artwork. That was the birth of House of Kash, home of an “Accidental Artist”
Today, my husband still puts up with me, my son is heading off to college and of course, I have 3 dogs. After 11 years, my mom got her well deserved wings to go meet up with my daddy in heaven. the road to becoming an “Accidental Artist” wasn‘t easy or part of “my” plan, but the Lords plan, though nto always evident in the journey, is amazing! I love sharing the joy of bright and happy art with friends both old and new. I love being able to support community foundations that I believe in with artwork for auctions. Needless to say, it has changed by life. So today, I am an ”Accidental Artist” painting creative and colorful paintings. Landscapes, Seascapes, Animals, Landmarks, Photo interpretations, Abstracts and Dog portraits.
