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.

Venetian Sunset, pastel painting
We love to travel. My husband and I took our kids to Venice one time. Amazing place! The old buildings, the canals, the boats and vaporetta (buses on water). Come dusk, lo and behold, a glorious sunset, something I set out to capture with pastels. A small work but with lots of heart.
"Venetian Sunset", 8"x10" pastel, sold unframed, $160 + $14.95 s&h
