I am continually am inspired by our world. Often, what catches my eye seems to be waiting for artistic expression and interpretation. I have many journals that capture “the wonder in the familiar” – locally and all over the world. I often paint multiples of a scene or subject – with new experiences and view points informing the outcome. My artistic journey evolves as I learn new techniques or ask myself what is missing, the presence of which will convey new wonder and meaning.
In July 2021, I moved my paints from my dining room to a shared studio at The Alameda Artworks in San Jose. Having a studio has unleashed my energies and given me the great joy of working with other artists; my hours here are inspiring and energizing. Painting for me is full of joy, decision making, learning, and challenges as well as great freedom and self-expression. Come and visit with me and many other fine artists at The Alameda Artworks.
