Artist Statement

Oddly, I seem to have had a fascination with walls for a long time. I remember being disciplined for drawing on the walls as a child, quite often! I also remember an experience as a young person helping a hometown theater group paint scenery and I just wanted those adult painters to get out of my way! I wondered how a person could actually be paid to do that!? It is interesting how the little things in life sometimes have such long range impact! I now find myself doing what I enjoyed so long ago, though I’m a bit better at it now!

Whether painting murals or fine art, nature is a huge inspiration to me. I find such awe and wonder in the intricacies of this beautiful world we live in! I ‘m constantly reminded of the sheer magnitude of God’s creations and I will always be grateful to the Master Creator, for allowing me to experience this gift of creating art!
