The artist at work.

"I am a local artist of Texas's Lake Livingston area and Colorado's Pikes Peak area. The Big Island of  Hawai'i was also my home for many years.  I have been an artist for as long as I can remember. I spent much of my childhood covering myself and the things around me with paint.  I have a passion for art that runs through my body and spirit. Art IS my meditation, and draws me to my core.  I believe art can give expression, strength, and freedom to the viewer.

Many different types of mediums appeal to me. Colored, graphite, and charcoal pencils when I'm on the go; watercolors on rainy days; sculpture to release tension; pen and ink when I am unable to devote constant time to my work; and oils when I need more time for an expression to develop.  Throughout the years I have studied photography, jewelry craftsmanship, enameling, and printmaking as well.  In the future, I hope to learn how to work with glass and bronze.

Nature, especially animals, is a prominent theme within my work.   I have a lot of interest in the traditional totems that animals embody.  Trees are also quite a favorite subject of mine, representing a life and growth.  As we are all constantly changing and growing; my art represents postcards along my personal journey in life.

Thank you so much for stopping by my page, I hope you found something that speaks to you. "
