“Art should be accessible to everyone.”
“Each piece of my art is fiction. It comes from a place inside my head where memories collide with fantasy. I invite the viewer to interpret my work as one would read an intriguing piece of literature and respond accordingly.”

The Collections
-
Once Upon An Easel
This collection depicts newly imagined characters from beloved children’s stories, myths, and rhymes. If you don’t see your favorite, I would be happy to create an original for you!
-
Snowy Villages
Most of the Snowy Villages are created with mixed media – cut or torn handmade paper and acrylic paints. Each scene is imaginary, yet reminiscent of places to which I have traveled.
-
Green, Green
Country landscapes await you in this series of wobbly houses, crooked fences, and grazing animals. If you look closely you may even find some unexpected objects!
-
Abstractions
To create an abstraction the artist moves from the real to the representation of ideas through using line, shape, forms, corners, surfaces, colors to create something previously not experienced. Interpretation is left to the viewer.
-
Fall Fantasies
As the seasons change, so too the colors on my brushes. Who could resist the rich hues of fall?
-
Fictional Phyla
The creation of fantasy animals has always been of great interest to me whether they live in fairy tales, well known children’s books, mythology, or the walls of museums. Nothing is more fun than taking an animal and giving it a new dimension, a new sound, a new color, a new name.

Paper Creations
PAPER - to tear, to cut, to dye, to layer, to stitch, to glue, to paint, to shred, to monoprint, to play with. Paper to recycle. Bits of this and that -old musical scores, magazine art, worn books, embroidery thread, fabric scraps, ribbon – are used to create something new and unexpected.
