Beyond Rose Garden - In Bloom Artwork - Limited Edition of 25

I am a watermedia artist who works in watercolor, watercolor batik, ink, and acrylic. I love the watercolor medium for the layering, colors, and transparency which appeal to my sense of spontaneity. My watercolors are vibrant, bright, and rich with wonderful depth and tonal ranges. My subject matter is drawn mainly from nature and landscape, but I pursue a variety of other subjects and styles as well, especially, abstract. In my abstract paintings, I love working with free form lines or shapes. Unless I have a specific theme in my mind, I begin with some calligraphic lines without a preconceived idea or result. If I like a certain theme or color combination, I work in a pair or series, in effort to see which permutations or combinations bring a more pleasing result. In the process of interplaying lines and shapes spontaneously, an idea emerges and the painting reveals something new my intuition and emotion responds to. With abounding color and vibrant beauty, my arts have found a home in many private and public collections in places as far as UK, Canada, Australia, UAE, Israel, Switzerland, and South Korea. I am not content with one style but want to evolve continually. I love to enrich my creativity and artistic vision through continued experimentation. I hope my creations bring you joy and an increased appreciation for the medium and the subjects of my paintings as much as they do for me.
