I am a Southern Californian with 30 years of the Decorative Art Industry behind me as well as degrees in Fine Art. Getting back to my own work after years of murals, borders and faux for restaurants, hotels and model homes is a whole new road. My tile & wood sculptures are growing into a serious art and 2 shows later I'm feeling like I know where I'm driving. So,much happier,I now sell on Ebay and through comissions. I'm off the ladders,in the studio and that's wonderful.
If you are interested in my work and think it might suit you, please feel free to contact me-

Sleeping with art
2008-09-12
I always wonder if other artists are painting and creating as they lay down to sleep at night. Do they build their dream home or the next sculpture like me? Are the paintings much more perfect than the ones they actually create? Mine are! The complexity of the art takes so long I can relax my body to sleep. My sweet hubby thinks I'm insane, I'm sure, and yet is still good enough to listen to me spout ideas as he is trying to nod off. He says they should put me in an empty room and just pay me to come up with things. I think I've solved world hunger and corrected the highway systems of California more times than I can count. I've sculpted massive outdoor designs and painted detailed canvases full of animals and mermaids and sunkens treasures. I think the child in me, the dreamer-is the best artist of all....

Portfolio Work

Threading through the maze of galleries,competitions and open market., I find it easier to escape into the framework of the canvas. Concentrating on the shapes or shadows. Running with the lines. Thoughly sure it will never burst out like I'd wish. Hoping for something I see in my mind's eye. Always surprised at the outcome. I suppose that's every artist's process of creation - heard or touched or seen.

I love pondering silverback! I can relate to your paintings and how you zoom in, it's something I do in my work. Your eye for detail is excellent.

As an animal lover, I really admire & appreciate your work. It's too bad you've already sold it b/c I find your Silverback particular stunning. I have loved gorillas my whole life, and this is really quite beautiful. Fabulous work. ;)
