"I layer, scratch, dab on color, glob on acrylic paint, and then perhaps repaint the whole piece. But, if I had a challenging and interesting time that work is a success for me. My paintings are primarily non-objective, sometimes expressing humor, always with little regard for “correct” color, shape or perspective."

Brenda taught kindergarten, raised four children, directed a religious education program, and is now a grandmother to six, while following a desire to create art. Born, raised, educated and living in central Wisconsin her non-representational acrylic paintings incorporate spontaneity, humor and a childlike quality. Reflecting her interest in bold color, texture, and pattern the pieces express her love of life.
Her work has been exhibited in national, state and local shows, most recently at the Bergstrom-Mahler Museum in Neenah, Wisconsin.
