I spent my grade school years in beautiful Charlottesville, VA, and returned to attend college. My young adult years were spent in Middleburg and Purcellville...within view of the gorgeous mountains and verdant pastures. Though I was born elsewhere, I have always considered myself a Virginia girl, and the dogwood has been a favorite flower. My love of the dogwood blossom continues to find its way into my art, and I have created a collection around this joyous flower.
