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.

Flirty Iris, painting on glass
This is a sweet little iris that I found peering around some green leaves this summer, as if it were saying "hi there!". I realize that I am giving a plant some emotion here, but somehow they look as if they have faces (pansies, especially) or moments of life to which a human can relate. Call me philosophical (ha!).
"Flirty Iris", 10"X8" edge to edge glass, sold in a simple black frame (not shown), as these paintings must be protected from scratches and chips and are more secure once they are in a frame -- new pricing: $200 + $14.95 s&h (also, see close up on my website)
