Paula resides on the East Coast along with her husband Chuck and her studio companion “Timber”, her “Velcro” Golden Retreiver. “Waxhaw is a small community just south of Charlotte, N.C., where we joke that the horses still outnumber the people. Although I paint just about anything that grabs my attention, I am always partial to painting our East Coast marshes and coastline.”
