"My paintings reflect my view of nature. They are expressions of my own enjoyment of what is visual and tactile. I represent this through my choice of media and its inherent qualities. To me, this celebrates the flexibility, spontaneity and durability I appreciate in nature.

The florals are an avenue to what pleases my eye. The beauty found in their color, pattern and texture is an endless discovery inspired by my garden and reflected in my paintings."
