Possibilities. Prints available here. ….. A lot of times, I’ll overwork a painting until the colors get all muddy and gray. That usually happens when I’m working so quickly to get a painting to look like the image I have in my head (which is never possible for me). Then I might finally get the character right and well-defined, but in the process of layering... Continue reading

My process is all very intuitive and spontaneous, never planned. The background layers are always about getting out my emotions. I splatter inks, fingerpaint and just let the colors merge together. This process is all about feeling free and really expressing myself. Continue reading

Lately I have been playing with all sorts of new art supplies and colors. When I first started painting again, I used lots of untraditional supplies like glitter and crayons. So I am going back to lots of those fun and playful supplies and adding them to my current favorites like oil paintsticks, paint pens, neons and acrylics to create a whole new look. And,...

Lately I’ve been conscious of taking a step back from a painting, before I overwork it. There have been too many times, where I look back at my in progress photos and wish I would’ve left the painting loose and more free. In my paintings, I go through so many layers and cover things up so many times, that people always ask, “How do you... Continue reading
For years, when I believed I couldn’t make a living as an artist, I stopped creating. I hid all of my artwork and supplies in the basement. It was too painful to create. Now that I paint for a living, I’m constantly observing and documenting my creative process. I’ve learned to take a step back and recognize my patterns to make it easier for me... Continue reading

So when she told me not to be an artist, my heart sank.I knew she had... Continue reading
