|  Stormy, living in Dubuque, Iowa, continues to be inspired by the ever-changing marvel of Iowa's country. Having been an Iowan all her life it only seems natural that each of her images contain a little piece of country; farmhouses, starry-laden skies, birds.
Art is Stormy's release from a world full of serious matters. It is her connection to her inner child, her playful, not-so-serious self. Stormy's images are simple; stars, flowers, people. Things that make her feel happy: bright colors, coloring book-like outlines. Scribbles and birds. Free flow writing is often present in her work. The writing is thought turned to form, only meant to be seen, not meant to be read.
In addition to her artistic pursuits, she also works part-time as a children's librarian. Leading story times and being around children keeps Stormy in touch with the youthful character that appears in her art. Reading the newest children's literature keeps her inspired and hopeful that someday a book will be published using her art as illustration.
"And now... from my imagination to yours. Enjoy!"
