My mantra has always been "Art is for everyone." Art should be everywhere - in the workspace as well as over the fireplace. Art has the power to calm, to transport, and even to heal the spirit in times of conflict and confusion.

My mantra has always been "Art is for everyone." Art should be everywhere - in the workspace as well as over the fireplace. Art has the power to calm, to transport, and even to heal the spirit in times of conflict and confusion.
A product of the 60's, I am a free spirit and strive to reflect this in my work. The process of painting fascinates me. I like bold, juicy colors. I may start with the brush, but I always end up with the knife. While winning awards and selling art validate what I am doing, being in class is where I grow. My education never ends; I learn as much from my fellow stucents as I do from my professors.
I like to work outside in all kinds of environments as well as in the studio. I live in San Marco with my husband, Jim, who is also an artist.

The environment has always been a special interest of mine. Florida became my adopted state in the early 70's when I set the criteria for buying environmentally endangered lands for the state.

The environment has always been a special interest of mine. Florida became my adopted state in the early 70's when I set the criteria for buying environmentally endangered lands for the state.
I paint to capture the enduring beauty and strength fragile, natural, historical and cultural treasures. I paint in all mediums, but I particularly enjoy the liquid, lasting, and spontaneous qualities of water colors. I would describe my style as fanciful realism.
I am an award winning artist, Naval Academy graduate, Viet Nam veteran, and I live in San Marco with my wife, Mimi, also an artist.
