her husband, daughter, pet hamster and fishes.  In her early
childhood years, she was inspired by every kind of art and crafts.
She loved watching demonstrations by artists on the streets and
at festivals and spent most of her free time perusing arts and
crafts books in the library, drawing, crafting and experimenting
with her art supplies at home.  Conie first started sharing her art
with the world by selling ACEO reprints of her ACEO paintings of
fairies, mermaids, and kitty art on Ebay in 2010.  She was a full
time account manager for a University before becoming a full time
mom and part time artist.  She currently enjoys spending time with
her family traveling, exploring the outdoors, and designing
beautiful, cute, and magical art for craft and coloring lovers.
