Biography
I've always been a dreamer, a romantic, and an artist. I've been told more than once that I have my 'head in the clouds.' It’s true. I see the world differently. Maybe that is why I like watercolor so much. The medium is fluid and free and has a hard time playing by the rules. I had a traditional art education but I just couldn't seem to follow the rules either. I kept asking, "What if I did this?" Or, "What if I changed that?"
Early on I developed a loose style of watercolor painting and over time it has evolved. I like to start a story with my paintings but then I want you, the collector, to find your own story and finish what I started. My desire is to do more than paint a pretty picture. I want to create art that connects us through memories, feelings, and beauty.
I like to think of my paintings as a love letter to the people, places, and moments that make up the human experience.
