Artist Statement
I didn't decide to become an artist. I was born an artist. It has been a truly magical journey for so many years, so many paintings, and I am still spellbound as I watch an image unfold before my eyes.
My talent is a gift I was given, and I love to share artwork that takes the viewer to a special place and scene. Two of my favorite comments to hear are, "Your paintings mean so much to us," and "Your artwork brings me such happiness."
I love being a part of this wonderful process that unites me, the painter, with people that have also been blessed with the ability to perceive and appreciate the beauty in life.
