Spring must be around the corner, it just has to be! I am so ready to see fresh flowers rising from the ground -- crocus, daffodil, forsythia, iris, whatever! While I like florist shops just fine, there's nothing quite like walking outside and being surprised daily by what is springing forth from the ground.
This is a palette knife oil painting, no brushes to muddy up my colors here. You should try it sometime -- put aside those brushes, just use knives for cleaning the palette or for painting. It's hard but fun!

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.
