"Watercolor became my chosen medium at the age of eleven, when I begged my way into an adult painting class. When my youngest went to kindergarden, I began painting in earnest, making it a full—time profession.
Watercolor’s magic transparency helps me interpret the world as I experience it, because of its luminous qualities that relate to my approach to my art as a way to translate energy and spirituality into the visual.
I paint into the wedge of Light between manifestation and the realm of Spirit. All matter is made up of Light and Energy. I paint these both symbolically and as metaphor.
When I turn to landscapes, my work refers more to how locations have made me feel more than physical aspects of place. I have peered into moving ocean waves and seen swirls of molecules. In mountains I see the forces of energy that have shaped the formations."
