My paintings reflect my life experiences, part memory, emotion, and a little fantasy. I usually paint from a collection of photographs using them as a reference point for color, shadow and shape.
My style of painting is representational. I work with both brushes and palette knife. I love to add textural effects to make my paintings touchable.
The inspiration
is often sparked by small things like light shining through trees, or the beauty of a flower along the path I take my dog for a walk.
I live in Nashville Tennessee with my husband, two cats and a dog.
