THE PEACOCK HOUSE
ART FOUNDATION INC

I grew up in Sarasota in the 50’s and 60’s as a free range child discovering and savoring the wilds of Florida. I spent 40 adult years out west and returned to Florida in 2021, and now live in St. Lucie West. When I retired in 2016, my goal was to reignite my creative spirit and expand my knowledge and appreciation of art. I grew up taking art classes in school but then life got in the way. At the time I retired, I was living in a small mountain community in northern Arizona which had a lovely community college which offered art classes through the OLLI program (Osher Lifelong Learning Institute). I took a few classes which evolved into me discovering colored pencils. On this journey in addition to pencil work I found that I enjoyed expressing myself through photography and abstract art. It is a nice balance between detail and pure expression. I’m a mother of two sons and grandmother of five.
