Thanks for visiting my blog! Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I have been painting for about 21 years and have evolved my style from strictly rendering realistic images to a looser, more expressive approach. I have chosen to paint abstractly because it gives me more freedom to explore ideas and materials.  About 10 years ago I started introducing collage to my work for a more exciting visual experience and to enhance the  textural component of my work.  I lived in Tennessee for  about  18 years and often visited the Smokey Mountains, which explains my tendency to incorporate stones,rocks or water.  Please take a look around and visit my gallery. Feel free to make constructive comments or contact me if you have any questions.

Of course, all of my work is for sale, so if you are interested in a piece, just let me know.  Have fun!
