About

Artistic Statement:

I am an artist who works in oil on canvas, primarily using a prismatic palette. I am inspired by the simple moments of everyday life, whether it be a humble peanut butter and jelly sandwich or an afternoon of tending to my flower and vegetable gardens.  Through the treasures of my fresh grown flowers and home-canned goods, I am inspired with a plethora of subject matter for still life paintings.  My work conveys a subtle but deeply felt emotional response and an intense connection to everyday moments.  Using the music of light, color, and contrast, I create a composition using thick and thin paint and the techniques of soft, hard, and lost and found edges.  I love dancing with paint.
