Artist's Statement:

Colorado is a great place to play and create artwork.  I am currently painting with Acrylics on canvas, Watercolor on paper, a combinaton of water color with Pen + Ink, and Reductive-Ink Monoprints.  I love textures, colors and drama.  I suggest scenes or stories in my paintings, and let the viewer's imagination fill in the many possible scenarios.  Atmosphere and mystery.

I want to explore the different aspects of my world, and “do it my way”- my own “twist on reality”.   

 As Aristotle said "The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance."

************* NEW ******************

I am now putting a lot of my images on beautiful 8" x 10" ceramic tiles.  They are decorative, and ready for hanging on the wall without a frame, or can be grouted into a wall. 

Also available are glass trivets useful for heat or cutting.

Great for gifts or inexpensive decor.

These run between $50. - $55.
