My paintings always feature trails that dissolve into mysterious areas, patches of light that lead the eye around corners, pathways, open gates, etc.

It's when I let myself get little that I tumble head over heels into joy.

Everyone can identify with a fragrant garden, with beauty of sunset, with the quiet of nature, with a warm and cozy cottage.

We all have romantic nature of one kind or another buried somewhere in our hearts.

Surround yourself with the kinds of input that are uplifting, that expand your mind and settle your spirit.

A painting has a lot of advantages over other forms of communication. Unlike a movie, you don't have to put it into a machine and turn it on. It's just there every day. It's not limited by the element of time. It's a constant part of the home.

My joy burns brighter when I tend to the glowing hearth fires of home.
