|
I was born in 1958 to a young couple while my father served in the air force in Mississippi, United States. |
| About the Artist | |
I enjoy mixed medium works along with pure acrylic paintings, mainly on canvas. I find working on a larger scale is freeing for me, yet smaller pieces present excellent challenges from time to time. |

Contemplation 9 (Considering Pearls)

| This painting considers the classics in modern life. It is a romantic view of the speed in which we live. |
|
Contemplation 5 (Concentration)
2007 |
)
|
| Representing the meandering mind running through a structured life. The feeling of being bound within the world and concentrating to break free only to be confined again. |
|
Fly Away

Horizon 1
2006 |
)
|
| This series began when I lived in England and became enthralled with the horizons there. The colors were amazing so capturing the feelings from those experiences started with this piece. |
|
Horizon 3
2006 |
)
|
| The sun set over the English Channel coast from Normandy, France was mesmerizing. I found the light quickly dimmed and the sky and sea darkened with the faintest glimmer of the most intense light on the horizon just the moment the sun fell to be a very emotional experience |
|
Horizon 4
2006 |
)
|
| Storms on the sea, in the summer, can be both beautiful and violent. They are truly a clash of sky and sea. Is it brutal? Maybe. To be very sure, it is change. This is a change in the future on the horizon. |
|
Horizon 6
2006 |
)
|
| A new experience on the horizon. As I soared into the sky, it was the horizon which pulled me in the new direction. A trip to a place I had never been before. The play of light seemed to be dancing in anticipation of my arrival. |
|
Horizon 12 (Dancing in the Night)
2008 |
)
|
| On a moonless night, the play of a light in the hand creates the most amazing images. It makes you want to dance with joy. |
|
Simple Contemplation
2008 |
)
|
| This painting of many layer of glazing creates a depth worthy of complete contemplation. I was drawn in by calm seas and blue, cloudless skies. |
|
Phases of Life
2008 |
','Image'))
|
| This series of small canvases combine to make another small work. The gradation of hues and the choice of reflective paints come together representing growth throughout life. |
|
Contemplation 6 (Swirling fog)
2006 |
)
|
| Fog arrives over the sea closing out the little light proceeding it. |
|
Horizon 11 (Pondering the Light)
2008 |
)
|
| As fading light settles into the night sky, the horizon is lost. This work is glazed heavily with clear gloss. |
|
Horizon 13 (Live Wire)
2008 |
)
|
| Electric storms are on the horizon sharing their energy with the world. The "wires" are silver and copper acrylic paint. This painting has many layers of clear, gloss glaze. |
|
| Education and biography | |
| My education is in interior design, a field I have worked in on and off over the last 28 years. My area of expertise is in pediatric health care and other environments for children and those who support them. I have and still am an interior design tutor. Painting became an extension of interior design and now it is my profession. I view the world in an abstract way and feel the emotions of my life are expressed in my art. |
