Artist Statement
At the tender age of eight I visited the Nelson Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City with my Aunt Gladys. This was a big deal for a young girl growing up in a small rural agriculture town several states away! As a result my life journey toward the painter I am today began. For a long time I painted exclusively with watercolor, a perfect match for my life as an art educator and frequent traveler. Now I am enjoying a rediscovery of oils. I simply love both. My paintings are deeply felt expressions of and a reverence for the natural world. A style sometimes called abstract realism.
