Figure, plein air painting and architectural subject matter are my passions. In my travels, the diverse building styles of Europe and the Far East have been inspirational. In my paintings, I strive to show the sunlight and shadow patterns to create a mood.

About

It seems like I have been an artist forever, starting as a small child drawing on any scrap of paper I could find. Luckily my parents encouraged me with children's art classes and an art education opportunity at Ohio State University where I earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees in Art Education. I then taught art in public schools for several years. Upon moving to California 40 years ago I concentrated my passion into a different direction. I started painting plein air, did many commissions, took up printmaking, and started to compete in local and national watercolor juried watercolor shows. As a result of these juried competitions, I have become a Signature Member in National Watercolor Society, Watercolor West, San Diego...
