​Artist's Statement:


Becoming a mother has opened my eyes as an artist. Whenever my children say, "Mommy, come see," I know I'm in for a wondrous moment. Whether being shown the gem-like eggs of a monarch on the under side of a leaf, the fluttering wings of a luna moth, or the sunlight catching the fuzzy coats of green beans dangling from a tendril, children zoom in on the micro world on a macro level. My kids remind me daily what joy exists when I slow down to bask in it.

By isolating floral subjects for my watercolors in front of a white backdrop, or enlarging smaller fauna specimens to many times their actual size, I can focus my attention on the simple design and beauty of the woods and garden around my home. I paint to convey the blessings of life around us--in this marvel of the creation we call nature.
