Inspired by J.M.W. Turner, Georgia O'Keefe, Massimo Cruciani, Edgar Degas and many others, I am pleased to be an artist painting in oils (palette knife and brush), soft pastels, paintings on glass and now watercolors. My landscapes are driven by my travel memories. My flowers are inspired by the actual thing -- I once had a pressed and dried flower business. And my skies -- my hero is Turner. What more can I say? My motto: "Life is short, use color!" I hope you enjoy my show.

Bougainvillea, Baby! (painting on glass)
Another of my all time favorite flowers, here is the bougainvillea painted onto glass. And yet another challenge!
Those brightly colored leaves curl and furl and twist around. The tiny little white bits are the actual flowers. I have five bougainvilleas growing outdoors as I type, but they'll need to come inside soon, as these babies don't like the frost.
"Bougainvillea, Baby!", painting on glass, 11"x14" sold framed as shown, $425 + $14.95 domestic shipping
