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.

Sea at Dawn, palette knife oil painting
Not being a morning person, painting a sunrise or dawn presents a challenge for me. I overcame this obstacle by determindedly getting up pre-dawn while visiting Rhode Island several years ago, just to attempt to capture the beauty of the sun breaking the edge of the ocean early in the day. I probably won't do this again for some time, so I do hope you enjoy my painting!
