Artist Statement:
The Canvas of my Life...
The canvas of my life, held
together by strong supports,
is grounded with love; primed
with rich, luminous
undertones. Upon this
foundation, a painted mosaic
of luxurious colors
(representing family, friends
and the sum of personal
experiences) shines through to
inspire and enrich my world &
art.
As a woman whose blouses...
(not to mention emotions)
refuse to stay tidily tucked
in, I'm happy to share my
passion for painting life’s
journey. I hope these latest
interpretations somehow touch
you, lift your spirit and
leave you with a lasting
impression. ...
