Now You See It, watercolor Watercolor is my first love, although I devote a large portion of my creativetime to drawing and have made occasional forays into oils, acrylics, printmaking and collage.
I believe with Delacroix that “The first merit of a painting is to be a feastfor the eye.” That is my goal in painting – nothing more or less. Trillium Triumvirate, watercolor My subject matter and style are eclectic. I am partial to images incorporatingflowers and plants. My style ranges from representational to abstract andgeometric often playing geometric shapes against natural forms. I am veeringmore and more into abstraction and non-objective painting, because I enjoy thechallenge of working without subject matter. Amaryllis, watercolor Recently, I have been having fun with "Yupo" which is a synthetic "paper" providing a very slick painting surface which paradoxically produces excitingvisual textures. "Sunny Flowers" and "Mayan Memories" are painted on Yupo.
