Ideas are gifts, good ideas that inspire and energize are miraculous!
Being an artist taught me to value my own good ideas .
The beginning of each my idea paths seem to always start with a question.
For example a whole series of paintings began following a palette choice of embroidery thread for a craft project, with the question, ”What is it with this color palette that touches my childhood memories, and demands emotional clarity for me?" Thus began "The Serious Series, for Playful Learners." Playful? Yes!, playfulness is our greatest source for all creativity, and it can also be joyfully serious! This series, started with "Play School," and proceeded one gifted, inspired, and miraculous idea leading to another.

This site is an ongoing journey for me, my desire is to create and personalize an imperfect web site.
My hope is that you will take your time, look around, and by learning about my creative process, you might be assisted in your own, whatever that energizing joy filled inspiration is for you. My many "paths" .... from Realism to Abstraction with oils, et all, and recently digital art, has freed my creative expression to the endless exploration of the art elements, the universal truth that always transfers from one medium to another. It holds a spiritual guide for me. Take a moment to drop me a line, if you are inclined,
