Thank you for visiting! My art comes from the constant inspiration of the world around me as I try to communicate my impression of it with paint and canvas. I started painting in 1993 when my daughters gave me some art supplies for my birthday and it has been a remarkable journey of fun and sharing ever since! At first, I wasn't sure which direction to go so I began a process of experimenting with all the mediums available to me and allowed my mind wander, exploring and inventing techniques as I went. A lot of my passion and inspiration came from my first explorations of, and inspirations from, nature as a child. I love the freedom of expression painting affords me and the affect my art has had on others gives me great joy and that is why I will continue painting for as long as I am able!  My hope is that my small contribution will bring you joy and peace and will help you to gain a sense of awareness that God is here with us as He reveals His creation to us and shows us that we are a part of it!
