Watercolor and Mixed Media Artist



Artist Statement
My work as an artist varies from representational to abstract/impressionistic. I am known for details in my representational watercolors, unusual webbed backgrounds, and my abstract/impressionistic alcohol inks. Each piece of art contains a fragment of myself as an expression or form of exploration. Feelings and emotions are a part of each painting reaching out to the viewer to enjoy the painting as much as I enjoyed creating it. Mixed Media paintinga are done on Yupo paper, wood panels, or tiles. Many include a polished geode in the final painting. My landscapes are inspired by the natural beauty of North Carolina as I split the year living between the eastern and western parts of the state.
