I was born in Santa Cruz CA in the midst of a scorching heat wave on October 2nd 1980, then raised from the age of three on Vashon Island. Some of my first works of art can be found beneath the walls of my childhood home in Dockton where my parents still reside – young, alive, well and still just as supportive as ever.

I am a family and self taught artist. Nearly every member of my immediate family being an artist, I was doomed from the start.

I married my machining/drag-racing husband, Mike Brenno, on the most magical day of September 18th 2004 and since then we have become proud members of the Vashon Homeowners club. I am probably painting a wall right now…
