Statement
After retiring from a career in computer technology, I have rekindled my passion for creating art with eyes, heart and hands.
One of my biggest joys is painting en plein air in Vermont and wherever I travel. I love painting from life, and the natural world is full of inspiration!
I work primarily in pastels and watercolors, and I continue to practice drawing in other mediums to keep those skills fresh.
I accept commissions for house portraits and still life paintings of significant objects.
