I am originally from the Midwest. I love nature, antiques, gardening, golfing and creating. After graduating from Purdue University, I moved to Colorado. My husband, Tom, and I now split our time between Colorado and Arizona.
It is pure joy to paint with the medium of soft pastels – the color and instant gratification to create art portraying the essence, spontaneity and beauty.
When I start a new day at the easel, I am filled with all the possibilities. I love the potential of color, patina, expressive gestural drawing and texture put together. My paintings are sometimes based on a photo, a combination of photos, real life and from my mind’s imagination. My hope is that the viewer experiences an emotion from the artwork that calls to them.
Some of my influences are the scenery in the foothills of Colorado to the desert of Arizona. In addition I have traveled quite a bit in and out of the country and look for inspiration everywhere.
I feel fortunate to have learned so much from some of the best artists and teachers in the country including ~
