Hands

hands that bring joy to others...
a gift of music ... a concert... a nursing home...

helping, loving and comforting hands...

About Me

Nan and =^..^=: I'm an artist/illustrator specializing in ink and watercolors and photography. My little studio in Maine is nestled in our garden by a babbling brook. Everyday I draw inspiration from the pets who have touched my life, our garden, birds and wildlife critters, quaint old houses, children, shells, scenes of the seaside and more. Hope to share my art and observations with you and don't forget to take a moment to notice the precious little things around you.
