“I describe my art as ‘realism with a twist’. My paintings tell a story; if you look closely you may find yourself.”

I have loved drawing ever since I can remember, and have been painting for over 26 years. The possibilities of watercolors and acrylics are amazing...

In watercolor, my technique is controlled with many layers. I enjoy watching the detail, pattern, and message emerge in every piece I do. With acrylics, I have found a different artist within myself. What came about is a looser style — one with more paint strokes and texture, yet still controlled to get the right detail I need. I am having a lot of fun with both mediums.

 

My latest series, Gardening Divas, is a light-hearted series centered around the diva. She is not quite sure how she fits into nature, but sure about herself. My focus for my portraits is to bring out the “inner beauty” in each person or animal I paint.
