Eclectic describes my taste in music, friends, & even lifestyle. Renaissance Faires, Church, Motorcycle events, my Husband Ray & my Grandkids and their friends keep me busy. I was born into a carny/motorcycle family and so was Ray. The carnival life has left vivid memories that inspire many of my paintings, as well as 24 years of Ren Faires, my two sons and all the people, kids and animals in my life." Scenes of the Peaceful Kingdom " describes my art in general.
Arts Specialty:
Original Oil Paintings of Realistic Fantasy, Christian, Wildlife, Family Portraits, Pets, Renaissance and other Costumed events on Smooth Gessobord or Canvas. I have also illustrated three childrens' books which were written and published by Phillip Hauck. Many of my Angel paintings have been in publications by Doreen Virtue. I also paint murals on Motorcycle Tanks, Helmets etc. in Enamel.

Thank you for your beautiful work, and offer of friendship. Your paintings seem to exude a kindness and sweetness that surely must be within the heart of their creator
Hi, Audrey. Ken and I have been going to Renaissance fairs for at least 20 years now, but we must have met you around ten years ago when Rosie was wrapped around my neck like an ermine out at the Visalia fair. You took a picture of us, and I will always cherish it. So glad we met up again last year. We lost Rosie, but we found you again. You and Ray are our mirror couple! Your artwork is mysterious and enchanted, like you. How do you stay so sweet? I would like to try painting in oils once but am afraid of toxic fumes. I hope you wear a mask.
Thanks for sharing, they are beautiful. I have done oils before but got very sick from the chemicals so I stick with naturals. keep up the good work! God Bless you and yours too!
thanks for including me as a friend....I LOVE YOUR WORK!!! So beautiful! Where exactly do you start the paintings? Are they oil or acrylic? Such Brilliant color. Such good details. I'll bet you have lots of stories from your younger days to tell right? My hubby was checking out the site and told me to come see this persons art....it was you. Awesome. Happy 4th =}
Hi Audrey, the depth in your art is rich, the colors relaxingly deep.... how nice to meet you! It s sounds like an interesting life you've had, having!
Peace~Doe
I really enjoyed seeing your paintings in person, i'm going to have to buy one of your prints next time i see you. The detail in your paintings is absolutely AmAAAAzing!!
As for the Ren Faire, i don't think my family did any of those that you mentioned. I'll tell you one thing, i sure do miss the Faire, especially the Churro's! I still go to the Casa De Fruita Faire becuase my aunt and uncle are have a pottery booth, but it's not quite the same as it used to be.
Audrey! PH here. Hey, sorry, I didn't know that you'd written until today, March 21, 2009. What do you mean a section for other artists? Tell me more please. So far, I've not done any paypal, but I'm registered there, but I need to do something else I think to get it done. I'm doing a book reading on Saturday, the 28th, from 2 to 3. You and your H are invited to it at the Spectrum Art Gallery. The book has a CHRISTian side to it, by the way. Peace be with you. PH
Hi Audrey, thank you for accepting my friend request! I absolutely LOVE your paintings. I was wondering which Ren Faire's you used to do? My family did them for about 20 years, we we're on potter's row. We did the Novato and San Bernadino faire's, but i know they were in a few different locations before those also. Anyway, It's great to meet a fellow Faire person here in fresno!
Hello there! My name is Starla Williams and I'm the curator of the new Peppertree Gallery here in Fresno and was wondering if you were interested in showing and/or selling your work in a gallery setting? We rent just the space an artists needs for a whole month, we provided a complimentary reception during art hop on the third Thursday of the month, and anything you sell you keep a hundred percent of the profit. We can accommodate wall mounted pieces as well as sculpture. I would love to hear back from you with any questions or comments you may have. Thank you for your time.

Hi Audrey. Thank you for including me as your friend. Your artwork is amazing. I wish that I had the skill to draw the pictures and ideas I have in my mind but my "art" includes weaving, wearable art and hats, puppets, and altered books. I love to create things in paper - stuff like 3D penguins holding a poem. I just finished a hen sitting in a nest and her wing lifts to reveal a book. I tried to use all recycled stuff from my studio but I ended up adding paint and a couple of things I bought. I look forward to getting to know you. I've had so much fun on the writing page and I've only been on it a couple of days. Take care,
Andra
