I feel I am a creative person. I always like to think of new ways of doing things and there are many examples of this in my personal and professional life. I enjoy creating and designing websites, gardening with color and when I had more time, needlecrafts and painting were two other interests I developed.  I find the computer lets you extend creative ability because of the increased exposure to other's ideas. As Thomas Edison once humbly admitted, "I see so far because I stand on the shoulders of giants." The Internet and ideas shared, helps us see atop Mt. Everest.

my herb garden adds color and good smells as well as some useful cooking ingredients.	lupines are one of my favorite perenniels that provide color in May and June
This represents an early needlepoint effort but its original and I've used it as a mirror for the past thirty years.	My first attempt at a watercolor.
