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.

Billowing Sunset, palette knife oil painting
Sunsets are one of my specialties when it comes to painting. Sunrises are not. I'm a late to rise and somewhat late to bed sort of person. I usually see sunrises either on the way to a surgery, a birth, or the airport. I see the most spectacular sunsets all the time, living where I do. We live right next to the foothills of the Rocky Mountains in Colorado, so the view is fabulous. I can go outside in the early evening or even just peer out the window from where I paint -- and there it is, something magnificent, something I attempt to document.
