I was born in Alberta, Canada but mostly grew up in southern Ontario. My husband and I met while we were both studying Art at Calvin College in Grand Rapids, Michigan. We have three wonderful children who have all attended ACA (two have graduated). We are both working as artists here in beautiful Asheville, North Carolina. I love teaching Art to my elementary and middle school students. They are enthusiastic artists and are eager to try each new project and have such unique ideas. It is exciting to see them express themselves through the arts and explore the gift of creativity that God has given them.
