Original Paintings and Prints in Watercolor, Acrylic and Mixed Media

Art gives voice to the spirit.  Just as music can stir the soul, so can art.  Brush to paper or canvas opens a new world of expression that includes and conveys deep feeling, emotion, and meaning. The most effective works of art speak the words spoken during the creation. Those words can have many meanings and that is the true wonder of art - it means something different to every person.

The focus of my art is to nurture, bring peace, comfort, uplift, and heal.  This transcends all the mediums I work with, whether it is a painting, note card, paper sculpture or digital photographic enhancement.

I often meditate or pray when creating a work of art - after all, creative pursuits link us to the Creator. 

I use color, symbols, texture and composition as my tools. My inspiration comes from my family, faith, gardens, home, world travels and my personal experiences. The themes are abstract, landscapes, trees, and spiritual.

The goal of my work is to bring peace and tranquility to the viewer - like a visual mediation. Come visit my gallery and have the adventure of exploring.
