Her creative hobby took a back seat for a long time as real
life took over and Filly was unable to keep up with her passion like she wanted
and would only be able to choke out a few works or writings every now and
again. She was stuck in a dead end job for many years, and unhappy with where her
life was going. In 2005 she decided that going back to school would help solve
the problem. Sure enough it did. She now studies biology and is hoping to
become a vet and it has fueled her creative passion for the arts all over
again! It's funny how an outside source can totally trigger the creative
process!
Her love for biology, animals and nature are incorporated into her works of
art. She is inspired by the shenanigans of her two dogs, Jack and Billy, and it
sometimes inspires silly art. Her love for nature brings fourth many drawings
and paintings of landscapes, sunsets, sunrises and beach scenes. Her passion
for biology inspires such creations as her Sears Tower replica made completely
out of microscope slides and her currently in the works replica of the Eiffel
Tower made entirely out of matchsticks. She utilizes many biological and
scientific concepts in the creation of a piece and has now come to rely on her
biological supply catalogs for many tools that she uses in her works of art!
