As an artist I find the most interesting part of creating art is the process of putting an inspiration on paper and how it translates from my heart onto the canvas. My work is eclectic in that I work in all mediums called Mixed Media Art.
I create images that remind me of the joy in my life, living near the ocean, the beauty of nature including flowers and places that speak to me of peace and restoration. I’ve been adding whimsical Original Artwork of children and animals, great for children’s rooms and shower gifts. I love to receive commissions from clients that are personal to them. Some of the images you will find on my website are already spoken for but they are there so you can see the wide range of my styles.
I recently started studying the art of mosaic with more pieces to come.
