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.

Salmon Poppy Trio, painting on glass
Gotta love those poppies! We started growing some salmon poppies a couple of years ago and I eagerly anticipate their blooms. They are just so lovely! The colors seem to change with the light, naturally, and the centers are a deep burgundy as opposed to the center of the red poppies which are more of a deep purple.
I hope you enjoy these flowers as much as I do. I'm hoping to make an attempt at painting onto glass some Himalayan blue poppies in the near future. Now, that should be fun! Thanks for looking.
"Salmon Poppy Trio", painting on glass, 8"x10" measured edge to edge, sold framed as shown for $240 + $14.95 domestic shipping
