I paint because it is creative, fun, challenging and connects us to others. I say see/feel to others through my work (paintings). I enjoy painting in a variety of media and style. I find that the subject I want to paint often dictates the media but not always. I paint local landscapes in oil weekly with our local Colorado Plein Air group. In my home studio/gallery I paint in watercolor, acrylic and mixed media. Studio works range from several feet in size to small postcard works. Flowers, animals, birds, abstracts, landscapes and structures are my subjects.
