I am a painter – my work varies from impressionism, expressionism and abstract. I have studied, taught, operated a gallery, and painted for over 35 years – but I have been an artist my entire life. I love interacting with other artists and anyone interested in the visual arts; and appreciate opportunities to learn and grow from such interactions. My work can best be described as “simplified and exaggerated” because I concentrate on shapes and never adhere to what I see before me. The inspiration for each work is just a launching pad to get my creative juices going - then I develop and alter the subject as I feel needed to solve the problems I create along the way. The results are unusual color choices and design elements. I invite you to visit the gallery and see my new – and older – paintings. I hope you will note a change – a growth in my work - as I attempt to always challenge myself to do better.
