I have 3 cats and 2 ducks, a male Rouen and a female Pekin. I am an artist. I live on the family farm where I help care for my folks and our critters. We raise our chickens and ducks for their eggs and feathers, which I incorporate into my artworks. I am a chandler (candlemaker). I also create visual art in a variety of mediums, drawing, colored pencil, jewelry, mosaics, sewing purses and bags, gourd art, natural wood furniture, and accessories.
