I am drawn to the vibrant ... and the quiet colors, the sounds, the feel ... all the textures in the natural world around me.  They inspire my intuitive voice, creating a space where connection to myself and my surroundings is nurtured.

It is this connection that acts as a guiding voice through colors and forms and ignites the expression of creativity.

I find a profound sense of freedom and passion as I explore the natural world that is part of my everyday life...through my quiet walks in the redwood forest, the stillness of foggy mornings, the energy of the sea during a storm.  

Before I moved to the North Coast, my palette included many reds and purples.  With time that began to shift.

I am surrounded by a multitude of greens, blues, teal, yellow, orange and sienna.  I am drawn to deep color and these days my work seems to reflect the world around me.
