Adrienne has been painting since she was nine years old when her grandmother arranged for her to have private painting lessons.
In 1990, she earned the title of Outstanding Young Artist of Virginia, and in 1991, was awarded the title again. Her piece, “Paradise”, was prominently featured at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts in Richmond, Virginia for a year, followed by a national tour over the following two years, including its display at the governor’s mansion in Virginia.
In addition to painting, Adrienne also works in pastels, oil pastels, and mixed media. She works in different styles from traditional to contemporary.
