ABOUT

​NEW! NEEDLEPOINT DESIGNS!
I'm very excited to announce that several of my paintings are adapted to needlepoint  by www.tapestryfair.com.  For purchase information, contact your local needlpoint shop.

​I live in Phoenix, Arizona and love the winters here! There is so much open sky and the sunsets are technicolor!  I hike and bike and sometimes swim for my exercise and find satisfaction in cooking.  I love salads, soups and homemade cookies, but I don't like macaroni and cheese!

Louisiana, Montana and Florida were three places I lived before I was six.  I don't remember many things about them because I moved to Phoenix after that.  I'm lucky to have traveled to many other countries and enjoyed the adventures and inspiration it gave my work.

I use Golden liquid acrylics and mediums along with stencils, metal leaf, collage papers and I enjoy experimenting with all sorts of techniques,often while listening to opera music.  Lately, I've tried a few book tapes, but my favorite is simply the sound of the birds twittering and calling outside the studio doors.   I usually buy my art supplies at my favorite store, Arizona Art Supply.  I  work traditionally and have for many years, but recently I've started to explore art digitally with my new iPad pro and with Adobe Photoshop.

I belong to a book club and have for more than 30 years, cherishing the company of my fellow members as well as all the wonderful stories we've read.  My hobbies always seem to be craft projects that range from making jewelry, building dollhouses, sewing stuffed animals to mosaics and handmade journals.

Why I make art is a question I have asked myself many times.  I think it is because of a fascination with the natural world, which engages my senses and imagination, and fills me with wonder.   Everything around me is inspiration.
 
Making art means everything to me, so I am excited to start every new work.  Producing the art is always a struggle and nothing is ever created in the same way.  I truly love the process.  And, I cherish the satisfaction in finally creating something interesting and beautiful.

If I wasn't an artist, I think I would be an architect.
