I have always had an emotional response to color, and I take great pleasure in combining pastels on paper to create my color saturated landscape paintings. I paint only in the delicious colors of pastels. To quote the famous painter Wolf Kahn, “Pastel is the dust on butterflyʼs wings.” The combination of being outside and using color to interpret a landscape is relaxing and fun.

I am a member and formerly on the board of the Alamo Danville Artists' Society.

I have enjoyed taking classes with Kim Lordier, Richard McDaniel, and Richard McKinley, among others.
