I capture energy on canvas™. When creating an abstract or figurative piece, I often feel tingling in my arms and hands and waves in my body, like a rush of caffeine, or a shiver from a chill. Sometimes I experience a quickening in my chest, an inexplicable feeling of love and connectedness. I keep working with the painting until it begins to have a rhythm and core of its own that I follow until completion, which may take a week, a month or several years.

Abstracts are generally done in acrylic. I paint with both hands letting the energy inside build, painting, at times, with quick urgent strokes and then wiping areas off with rags until the piece takes form.

My love for creating figures in oil, allows me to express my passion for beauty, design and color. Lively, bold, vivid art, keeps me connected to the delicious, exciting, and sensual sides of life which can get lost in a long list of to do’s, computers, and cell phone necessities of life.

For many years I was in private practice as a counselor, healer, teacher and energy intuit. It is a privilege to use my background in the healing arts to share my reverence for life through creating art.

Selecting a piece of art is a personal choice and an individual experience. Discover the beauty that moves you, delights you, and surprises you.

And wherever you decide your art will live – in your home or office, bedroom or kitchen, may you visit often, taking time to, celebrate and renew.
