I view my art not as self-expression but rather the expression of that fleeting moment in time when we capture the connection we have with all that is.

I have had the privilege and adventure of gaining extensive background in several media throughout my career -- oil, watercolor, ink, ceramics, glass mosaic and the art of using alcohol based dyes on silk. I am grateful for the awards I have won but, most of all, I am grateful for the people who love my work and for the countless smiles that I have seen evoked through the years.

I am delighted that my work is collected around the globe and trust that it brings love and a bit of serenity wherever it goes.

Styles: Acrylic, Collage, Glass, Mixed Media, Mosaic, Oil, Pen & Ink, Silk, Textile Arts, Watercolor, Wearable Art
