While living in Vermont, Paulette developed many forms of creativity including quilting, gardening, sewing, spinning, weaving and basketry, eventually becoming a business.

For 15 years she served with her family in many nations with University of the Nations in the areas of teaching, art and community development. With the need for more mobile art forms, painting in several mediums has served her well. She presently lives on the front range of the Rocky Mountains in Colorado Springs, lending greater inspiration to her work.

Paulette has won many awards through her various forms of artistic expression. She enjoys working on portraits inspired by her heart for diverse cultures and peoples she has met around the world.

She loves to encourage people of all ages to explore their creative side:

"Everyone has hidden desires and dreams within to be creative and clever – to explore and discover that which brings life and personal discovery – a part of our nature that is dormant and looking for permission and expression – cracking a door within that allows the true essence of who we are to be explored and examined – to be felt, tasted and viewed – something that we own that is uniquely and exclusively ours to keep or to give."
