Virginia, United States
I guess you could say I was born an artist! My intrinsic artistic abilities appeared around the age of 1½ years old when I began scribbling colorful imagery on my bedroom walls, later carving designs and cryptic messages on my parent’s fine furniture. Over the years, I have continued my artistic endeavors working as a monotype printmaker, painter, mixed media artist, and jewelry maker.

Studio Day

Today was a great studio day! I got to spend quite some time just painting!!!!! I have had these images stored in my mental files for quite some time and today I made two come to fruition!


'Murmuration', is a mall 8" x8" study in oil and wax. I have two larger panels gessoed and my next studio day will be consumed in creating my true visions for this happening!

'It Has To Rain Sometimes' is more of a textural experiment with cold wax, oil, and charcoal. I am fascinated by the charcoal and how it merges with the oil and wax! This piece is 12" x 12".

Both pieces are available.


Also, I wanted to let you know of two show openings. 
I have had two pieces selected for each of these fine exhibitions!

11th Annual New Works Show
Jacksonville Center, Floyd, VA. 
March 22nd through May 18th 2013
Reception on Saturday, April 13th at 6pm.
Spring forward with the Jacksonville Center!  Come and explore the beautiful minds of the local art community.  Work is fresh and new like a spring morning.   It’s the perfect time of year to get out of the house and see what people have been creating over the cold winter.  Come out of hibernation and see what is blossoming in the Hayloft Gallery.  
AND
The National Juried Art Exhibition
April 5-27th, 2013
Reception April 5th, 5-8pm 
Academy of Fine Arts, Lynchburg, VA.
