I have been painting for many years and have loved my adventures through the use of water media and oil paints. I delight in using vibrant color and lively brushwork to express my feelings for my subjects. I am drawn to a variety of subjects and invite you to follow my work.

"Change is Good" - but this time it has ruffled our feathers good! With most galleries closed, virtual shows, and lots of time on our hands, we have had to re-invent areas of our lives. During 2019 I had been exploring a couple new mediums, so I was inspired by the newness of my knowledge and materials. I had been exploring GOUACHE as a sort-of "travel medium" as it is quite portable. I had plenty of experience with watercolor so I caught on fairly quickly. In fall I had done an intriguing series of small desert paintings after a trip to Moab for my son's wedding. I hope you like them. And right before the holidays I took some instruction on Batik Watercolor, so was ready to go with 2 new looks to explore as we headed into Covid 19. Stay-At-Home was going to work for me. </span></span></span></span></i></h3><div><span style="background-color: black; color: #ffe599; font-size: large;"><span><span style="caret-color: rgb(11, 83, 148);"><b><i>However, the new life Covid 19 imposed on me did not inspire me with much artistic energy.

I made about 100 masks before the fabrics just weren't matching up right!
