Watercolor is my first love, although I devote a large portion of my creative time 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 feast for the eye.” That is my goal in painting – nothing more or less.

My subject matter and style are eclectic. I am partial to images incorporating flowers and plants. My style ranges from representational to abstract and geometric often playing geometric shapes against natural forms. I am veering more and more into abstraction and non-objective painting, because I enjoy the challenge of working without subject matter.

Recently, I have been having fun with "Yupo" which is a synthetic "paper" providing a very slick painting surface which paradoxically produces exciting visual textures. "Sunny Flowers" and "Mayan Memories" are painted on Yupo.
