          Using watermedia as a tool for my expression,

       my work reflects a fascination for line, color and

       design. My technique is to use patterns and forms

       observed in nature and to represent them in an

       impressionistic style. Each piece is hand painted,

       beginning with a light free-flowing wash. Additional

       color and detail are added to achieve a delicate

       compositional balance. I am constantly experimenting

       with new methods of paint application and have

       recently cut and collaged my pieces together adding

       yet another dimension. It is my hope to communicate

       to you, my unique and sensitive feel for nature.
