Beauty captures me – beauty in the every day and in the awe inspiring. It is truly a life’s work to try to capture in paint how I feel when confronted with the wonders of this world.
After almost 20 years in the Community Foundation field and five owning and operating an independent bookstore, I turned back to an early love, art. Since 2006, I’ve been trying to see deeper and more thoughtfully into the landscapes that present themselves as I move and travel about the country. I’ve been fortunate to live and work in South Carolina, Texas, Maine, Montana and now Colorado as well as traveling throughout North America and Europe.
To paraphrase e.b. white:
I used to wake up wanting to save the world, now I wake up and want to savor it.
