I am constantly compelled to paint symbolic narrative works with lots of figures set in local landscapes and seascapes. Since my earliest recollection nature has emotionally moved me. The agelessness of the environment offers me endless mystery and folklore that continues to shape my character. It reflects a bigger part of me and affords me peace of mind. I have been an artist/teacher for well over 30 yrs, working with oil, watercolor, most all drawing and markers, plus some digital media. I teach a healthy body of talented students in my Ashland studio.

A mixed media artist, I am inspired by the natural history of the mountains and river lands in Southern Oregon. I love collage and book arts and have shown my art throughout the US and locally at Illahe Gallery in Ashland and Paschal Winery in Talent. I have been published in online collaborations and art zines, nationally in Cloth Paper Scissors, and I'm a featured artist in "The Pulse of Mixed Media" by Seth Apter. I also teach and design art workshops.

Recently, I have been moved to explore the common ground between sculpture and painting. These pieces are made of paper and paper clay in combination with images from my paintings and mounted on wrapped canvas. I expect them to evolve and morph as I continue to explore this new dimension.
