Artist Statement:
There is not a time in my life that I can remember when I haven’t expressed myself as an artist. I am inspired most by nature. How light illuminates and creates shadows on the surfaces of land, bounces on the water or penetrates the foliage intrigues me. I am compelled to respond by expressing what I see and feel. 
I have expressed those inspirations in many mediums: drawing, phographing, sculpting, painting with watercolor and oils, and pastels. I was trained in oil painting since I was a young girl. It has been a lifelong challenge to master. Through this journey I’ve realized, as with most things in life,the process is the mastery. I simply love immersing myself in the process.
