Sometimes living in Arkansas, I find inspiration in my own garden. In the south, lilac bushes are sure sign of spring in full bloom. They are a treat for the nose, and the eye. If you wait on the porch, often you will see the butterflies stop for a rest as they pass by. Here I have worked Oil onto a black background canvas to bring up the detail of the leaves and to the darker tones of the purple Lilac. The bright orange of the butterfly stands boldly against the darker greens of the leaves.

I was born in Cedar Rapids, IA, lived in California for many years, wound up in a small town in Arkansas, where I finished raising my kids. After the children were all grown up, I set up a studio and really got serious about my art. While I did take some art classes in high school, I am mostly self-taught. I developed my techniques through trial and experimentation. Taking ideas from books available at art retail outlets, watching old videos of art classes on the cable and internet, I applied brush to canvas and made them my own. I tried several mediums to see what felt right. Everything from stones, to wood, a few works on glass and mirrors, and on one memorable occasion, I painted a whole room mural in my house. To add some variety, I also work in Pen & Ink, usually hard black inks, very fine points with some colored pencil shading. I always seemed to come home to traditional oil on canvas. It is there that my work flows most naturally.
