Art has been my passion for most of my life. After my studies at the Art Students League in New York City, I spent many years as a graphic artist and illustrator. Over thirty year ago I became a full time fine artist
Painting in watercolor and acrylic inspires me. I want to capture the shapes and colors of nature -- the light on the land, the movement of water and the clouds in the sky.
Over the years my painting style has changed from realistic to abstract impressions. I have been working on Yupo and oriental papers using watercolor and acrylic paints and inks. I like to experiment and allow the medium and paper to lead me on to new paths of discovery.Each new path has its own learning curve and that is exciting!
I still love to paint traditional transparent watercolors. I will be putting them on my Artists Page and Website, as well as my photographs.
Thank you for stopping by to look at my work~~
