If you ask Dorina, she'll tell you that for as long as she can remember, Maurina has had an unhealthy addiction to dots.  So it seems only natural for Maurina to feel the draw to Dot Art.  She loves how calming dotting is to work on and can lose herself in the dots for hours.

Maurina is also a talented tole painter, particularly of folksy Christmas scenes.  When not in her studio, Maurina enjoys time with her dogs, traveling wherever Dorina convinces her to go and dreaming of Disneyland.
