My Style ...is linear, ...is layered, ...is constantly moving forward. My work has evolved to abstraction, though realism sometimes still calls to me. Luscious textures, vibrant colors and elegant lines are what I often seek. Working with oils, acrylics and hand painted collage materials, I approach each work with an open, self evolving, mind set. I may have a destination in mind, but the route just may take me somewhere new. For you, the truth is simple; either you are touched by what you see or you are not. Always surround yourself with that which intrigues you and with what brings you pleasure.	"Velvet Glory"

My Style

...is linear,

...is layered,

...is constantly moving forward.

My work has evolved to abstraction, though realism sometimes still calls to me. Luscious textures, vibrant colors and elegant lines are what I often seek.

Working with oils, acrylics and hand painted collage materials, I approach each work with an open, self evolving, mind set. I may have a destination in mind, but the route just may take me somewhere new.

For you, the truth is simple; either you are touched by what you see or you are not.

Always surround yourself with that which intrigues you and with what brings you pleasure.
