For almost twenty years she've lived in the Sierra Foothills. My home has a tree house view of the world that has made nature an integral part of my life and my art.
The metamorphosis of seasons and the cycles of life and death are reoccurring elements.
A collection of curiosities, along with my love of fairy tales, Art Nouveau and Old Hollywood Glamour have also found their way into my art.
She paint primarily in transparent watercolor, layering luminous glazes of pure hue to give everything a candy coat of Easter-like color.
