About Me



Why Rock Girl Designs?

If I had a sound track to my life, it certainly would have a wide range of music representing my wide range of life encounters!Rock n Roll has always been a part of my life. Love my 80's New Wave music Depeche Mode, Duran Duran, Erasure, New Order.  Love my Foo Fighters to Kid Rock too!

FINDING MY HAPPY PLACE:
I have embraced that fact that creating art is a fundamental necessity to my overall happiness.  My love of art and crafting began when, as a child, I took art courses at the local park district.  This passion grew when I entered high school and began taking classes in drawing, painting and sculpture design and in college where I learned about technique and composition.  

Today, I continue my passion for art and takes pleasure in sharing my journey with others through my personal blog, Rock Girl Custom Designs.  As it has helped throughout my life,  I want to inspire others to find their own joy in creating and embrace a healthier version of themselves.

FAVORITE ART SUPPLY:

Fueling my creative drive by expressing my passion for art in many forms by working with different mediums and harnessing the best materials to create one of kind multi-layered/dimensional  designs.  I love to use my ingenuity to create original canvas art through the use of paper, acrylic paint, and canvas.   I can not live without my white pens and black sharpies! 

LITTLE PLACE CALLED MY OWN:


I currently reside in Grayslake, IL  where my basement has become The Rock Girl Design Studio.  It is my sanctuary designed away from the world  where I find my creative center and peaceful place.  

I live with my husband, Brett, and two fur babies, Pedro and Athena.
I have a 24 year old son, Cory James, and at 40 made me an empty nester!
