My paintings are described by collectors as serene, quiet magic, evocative, atmospheric, inviting, and honest. Gallerists compliment my colorist approach to light and space, and my technical skill. I consider my work to be a love song to the rural landscape and the gardens that I love. These places are where I go to find peace, so that is what I strive to capture in my paintings.

​

I see the possibilities beyond the real landscape in front of my eyes. Instead of defining, I strive to suggest. My imagination filters every scene whether en plein air or in studio and connects my feelings about the scene to the color and design choices I make. My expressive and impressionistic style celebrates color and atmosphere and my work plays with those elements in representational rural landscapes and garden scenes. 

​

What we need in this broken world is more play, more color, more serenity, and a place to rest the spirit. My work is a joyful act of resistance against negativity and chaos. My paintings beckon to the viewer, Come with me and see the magic and feel wonder, see beyond reality to the feeling of what is possible!
