Artist Statement
My passion for painting started in college when I took an independent study in painting. But it wasn’t till I retired from a forty year career in special education that I was able to devote myself fully to the art.
I enjoy capturing the beauty of landscapes, seascapes and animals. I also find much inspiration from the foothills around Murphys.
I have studied with Judy Cain, Susan Sarback and Heinie Hartwig.
When I am not painting I am making music. I write songs and perform with guitar and banjo at local venues. I love sharing the beauty of the world around me.
