Nature inspires me. I look to express the emotion I see and feel in everything that surrounds me. Love and gratitude are my guides.
Painting allows me to quiet my mind and gives me peace. My pallet reflects my personality and passion. My admiration of cultures across the globe is also reflected in my style.
Most passionately, I love animals. They are a gift to us all. My heart hurts to think of the neglect and abuse they undergo daily. It is my dream that through my art I will raise public awareness and resources for those who share my love of all creatures.
Pet Portraits are one of my favorite projects. I love to meet people and find out about their pets...if they are with us or passed...I do my best to capture their personalities and inner light...the love of their pets is always apparent to my... |
| Crossroads Crossroads
Acceptance gives us no chance to fight
We must go peacefully to receive the light
It leads us to crossroads too many to count
Watching intently as we assess the routes
Always there are two roads from which to choose
Never as simple as one you win and one you loose
The first road begins from the core of your soul
The one that makes you feel like you’re in control
It is easy to choose, for you know this road well
Most take it often thought the conditions are hell
Littered with ruble... | | Destiny Won't Wait Destiny Won’t Wait
We wither when we wait
Never postpose a dance with fate
Let him brush your brow- make promises for tomorrow
For hidden between seductive words and sultry glances
Your Destiny prances
She cleverly chooses Fate as her disguise
Lurking in his shadow awaiting prying eyes
You mush want me –she teases
The smell of your fear displeases
Fate frantically blows you kisses on the wind
Don’t be fooled friend, he claims
She and I are the same
You but know us by different names
Truth be... | | Dragon Fly Mystery Dragon Fly Mystery
Each morning I watch the dragon fly hunt above the water way
For what does he search so early in the day
Does some unsuspecting creature lurk above the pool in the early morning light
Or perhaps it is thirst which draws him to this flight
Every now and then a curious bird perches on the fence
Their mouths watering at the sight of him but intimidated by his diligence
A rival dragon fly swoops down in search of the same illusive treasure no doubt
Our warrior dismisses him, his... | | Your Love Your love is the water
that runs through my faucet
the light that shines from my bulb
my voice booms from your speakers
your thoughts sneak into my skull
my vision is seen through your lenses
whats yours or mine now hard to tell
Your Love spins my wheels
it stops them cold as well
each day that our paths mingle
is a day that I long for more
Your Love is the roof on this house I've built
You are the window You are the door
I am the flower You are the Spring
You give Your Love freely
yet it... | | Climbing Climbing the mountain of life can be a blast
the paths to the end are varied and vast
some take it slow, planning every step
in effort to avoid the sting of regret
others sprint forward as fast as they can go
always with their eyes on the next plateau
some feel the path less traveled is best
searching for adventure, longing without rest
a few meet the end just as soon as they start
a tragedy that truly can break our hearts
some are content to let others pass them by
they smile the roses, while... |
