The world is a cornucopia of artistic delights to me. Everywhere I look, I see things, spaces and moods to explore and interpret. I am drawn to nature from the tiny and minute to the sprawling vista and all stops in between. Yet, capturing that “it” factor while creating portraiture both fulfills and excites me! The many moods of still life have enthralled me and called to me. There is so much to take in and to be inspired by…and only so much time! For whatever work I do, there has been a vision, a feeling or an internal pull that has taken root in my heart and my head and will not leave me alone until I succumb to it’s seduction and lose myself in the piece that I “draw” out of my hands. When it works, my soul sings….when it doesn’t, I pocket the lesson learned and move on, either to try again or do something new. Either way, whether I capture viewers and entice them to my world for a moment or whether I create something that allows many interpretations, I am forever grateful to be blessed with those “internal pulls” that continue to lure me time and time again….
