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.

Dark Prairie Clouds, palette knife oil painting on canvas
East of Fort Collins lies the small community of Ault and further east of that are the Pawnee Buttes. I traveled there a few summers ago on what had been a lovely summer day. But, as is typical in a Colorado summer afternoon, the dark clouds rolled in, giving the atmosphere a steamy, eerie tone. Here it is for you to enjoy.
