About The Artist

I have been creative since a small child with everything from plasticine, spirograph, coloring books, caligraphy, drawing, macramé, clay and silkscreening. I have been devoting my time to painting with both acrylic and oil and finding joy and freedom in the process. The series of Elephant paintings started with one for a friend and then morphed into many paintings. These paintings are close to my heart as they helped me heal after the loss of my Mom. I would also suggest learning more about how amazing these elephants are. Please take a look at Echo-An Elephant to Remember (PBS Movie). Most of my abstract paintings are started with an expression of paint and then I see where my thoughts take me. I am always playing with colors and textures and how they mix together. The results are always interesting and some of my favorite works. I have learned from many artists along the way. I have been fortunate in sharing creative energy and studio time with some wonderful artists. I am open to creating a custom piece just for you. Please contact me.
