My style and enthusiasm comes from the Impressionist Artists. To me, impressionism means taking inspiration directly from nature, trusting my senses rather than what I think I know.  My goal is to approach each painting with a fresh, open awareness to the scene which allows me to learn from each painting. 

 

My joy comes from painting on location. I value the ability to put down my first impression quickly. In my paintings, you will find so much going on all at once, vivid colors, reflections of light and lots of brush strokes. Nature is my endless inspiration.

Hopefully my work will evoke memories of places you've seen along the way. My husband Larry and I live in historic High Springs.
