Color, Texture, Balance, Perspective and Serendipity are all crucial elements that influence my mixed media paintings.

While I have only been painting for a few years I've never felt that art is separate from life.

I am so fortunate to have amazing People, Places and Experiences Inspiring my life:

From my friend's purse collection hanging on her red painted wall

                                                 to Gauguin and Van Gogh paintings in the Minneapolis Institute of Art.

Minnehaha Falls---Mississippi River Bluffs---Boundary Waters---Lake Superior Shorelines---Loons & Swans on Lake Monona

Motherhood---Puppet Shows---Birthday Parties---Homemade Valentines---Puppy Costumes---Grandmotherhood

Weeping Willows---Elm Trees---Cottonwoods---Birches---Black Willows---Rolling Fields of Southern Wisconsin

Friends--Family--Co Workers---Artistic Cohorts---Instructors---Teachers---Mentors (I wish I could name you all)

I am grateful to be able to share some of my work with more of you----------
