My name is Reda, I was born in Banner Elk, NC, up in the mountains. I have always loved art of any kind and was always entering contests with my art. I am a self taught artist, doing crafts, painting, but mostly photography. I love all kinds of photography, from nature and animals to people.
I have been a member of Stanly Arts Guild for many years, and joined Falling Rivers Gallery when it first opened in 2007. I enjoy the Guild and working at the store. I enjoy meeting the wonderful people that come in to shop, and I also interacting with the other artists I work with in the store. I have been a church pastor for over 20 years, presently serving as pastor for Mt. Pleasant Pentecostal Holiness Church in Mt. Pleasant, NC.
