Artist Statement

In painting I have found my voice as a story teller and my new works focus on doing just that. One sleepless, moonlite night spent listening to spring romance in my garden inspired the whimsical painting “On The Fence”. Finding a potted seedling suspiciously missing from the green house was the germ behind “A Dirty Dozen Pretty Little Killers”. More moving on an emotional level, hearing blues music drifting on the wind in Charleston, SC led me to “House of Blues”. I want the viewer to participate in the journey. Stay tuned for the “Lure Thief” whom I encountered while salmon fishing on the staight of Juan de Fuca this summer, she is a slippery character for certain.

Sure to be a hit, I just completed a group of rustic, whale frescos after seeing a fin whale up close this summer. I am also enthusiastic continuing the creation of Fresco pieces rooted in nature and found objects. From billowing bull kelp, to emerging fiddle heads, delicate forest flowers and seashore leavings, all these down-to-earth botanicals come to life appling the vivid colors of my surroundings and imagination.
