“Laying Out Lunch”  

I don’t remember a time when I was not drawing or painting.   From the time I was a little girl, the world has always appeared to me as a series of paintings.  I imagined brush strokes.  I mixed color in my mind’s eye and mentally arranged scenery into wonderful compositions.  Strangers became imaginary models as I posed them and watched shadows change shape when they moved.  Photography enabled me to extend this technique with lenses, filters, and film.  Capturing light and shadow is my passion.

I work en plein air as well as in the studio, often beginning a piece with studies on site to capture the freshness of the scene and then finishing it in the studio.   I have studied art at the University of Colorado at Denver, the Denver Art Museum, the Art Students League, and with a number of national and local artists.   I am a signature member of the Colorado Watercolor Society, Colorado Pastel Society and numerous guilds.   My work has shown in juried international and national exhibitions, has received a many awards as well as recognition in national publications.  Both my fine art and photography are in corporate and private collections across the country.
