Peace + Love Painting

Art takes me to a fanciful, fabulous place surrounded by beautiful color and dramatic feeling. My creations are an expression of what I sense in the world around me. I strive to convey my feelings through the use of many layers of color, texture and movement. My hope is that you will be inspired and energized by what you see. I hope that you sense a connection that evokes good feelings and creates a special memory. I hope that my art will take you, as it does me, to a fanciful fabulous place. After retiring from commercial banking in 2005, I began studying art. I paint in the genre referred to as “abstract expressionism," primarily using acrylics and ink with layers of rich color and texture. My family and I live in Houston, TX and have a vacation home in Santa Fe, NM. Much of my inspiration comes from nature, particularly the rich colors and awe-inspiring landforms found in Santa Fe.
