I am a contemporary fine artist inspired by intriguing, graceful shapes and I love vibrant colors. I work primarily in acrylics because I crave their versatile quick changeability and all the texture mediums available. I've taught art classes through Umpqua Community College for 16 years. Besides a few florals, succulents and other flora, and abstract trees, my current focus has been expanding a wine series of paintings. It is my most current passion.
