I paint because I love it, creating pieces that are for no particular reason, except that was what appeared on the canvas at that time.  I do sell my work, but I don't paint to earn money.
When a work does go to someone's home, it is one of the best feelings in the world!
I find it rather humbling that someone would want to have one of my creations in their home.

I am delighted to have a working studio again.    Painting with oils is a deep and joyful process. I never really know what will happen when I sit down at my easel, sometimes it is a very quick creation and others take months to finish.  This painting was finished as a commission work and now lives in Florida.

I am most known for my one of a kind polymer clay earrings.  They make an appearance every couple of years, and there is a fresh batch hanging on display!  

Hot out of my studio, these necklaces sold immediately!
