All of my life I have had a passion for art.  I see it as a gift from the Divine Artist and must be treasured and used.  I believe I will always be seeking to know more and learn more about design and creativity.   I love to teach art because I want others to experience the joy I do when I draw and paint.  I also learn more when I teach.

 

When I am drawing and painting, I become a part of a special place where there is no time and I feel guided by what I see and feel and by the medium I am using.  I love to paint on location and complete the work in my home art studio.

 

Watercolor is my favorite medium because it helps me to be more spontaneous and more reactive to how the paint flows on the surface of the paper.  But I also love photography, image-editing with Photoshop, and printmaking.  I see myself moving in a direction which will incorporate all of these special interests of mine in a unique expression of art.
