Paintings

Welcome to my website! With my oil pastel, oil paintings, colored pencil, and mixed media pieces, I aim to create peaceful rural vistas, landscapes touched by energizing color. My abstracts and collages strive for beauty through the interplay of deep color and texture with metallic or gemstone elements.

I have loved color and art since I was a child. Through workshops, classes, tutorials, books, and countless hours of practice, I learned techniques in a variety of media including oil, acrylic, and watercolor painting. My experience encompasses:  ​

• Numerous studio classes and workshops at The Art League in Alexandria, VA, where I studied drawing, figure drawing, colored pencil, mixed media collage, and abstract acrylic painting.
   
• Additional in-person studio classes in photography, oil painting, and drawing, including a figure drawing course in Oxford England.
   
• Former member of the Washington, D.C.  chapter the Colored Pencil Society of America with artwork featured in a CPSA Chapter 109 show.
   
• Website design career experience including graphic design, digital photo editing, logo creation, online publication layouts and attractive, user-oriented web pages.
  
  
• I am a current member of the Fine Art League of Cary, NC.
