Each day I'm inspired by the world around me, nature, architecture, people, colors and textures. My response may be through painting, drawing or photography.
MessageI grew up in Northfield, Minnesota in the 1960's and 70's. The late 70's and early 80's involved traveling, studying art at the Unversity of Minnesota and a move to Guemes Island in Western Washington. After my son Calder was born, I began a small business printing and selling hand made cards. Lino prints of family life and the surrounding marvels of Puget Sound. This evolved into fun, pen and ink watercolors of daily life and also acrylic paintings of my son in action!
Anacortes Youth Arts in Washington gave me the opportunity to share art with young people. This led to working with students for 17 years in a rural K-8 school.
I returned to Minnesota five years ago to spend time with my parents. During those five years, I have jumped back into painting. First portraits, currently abstract landscapes and always photos. My travels have taken me to Amsterdam, Costa Rica, Mexico, and Budapest. Each location offers its own delightful array of subjects.
Currently, I am a member of the Northfield Arts Guild, MN Artists, Fine Art America and The Northeast Minneapolis Arts Association.
