I love color in conjunction with shapes. It's a constant exploration, and I like to experiment with mixed media though acrylics are my favorite. If there's a message in my abstracts, it appears as I go along. My general message with my paintings is to inspire, to cheer people up as they view my images.
Originally, I'm a writer, but my first love is always painting. Words can be painterly, but a picture says more than a thousand words...
I also work in mosaics and beads. No mirrors or small tables are safe from my mosaic transformation! I make one-of-a-kind beaded jewelry, and love to play with bold color and lots of sparkle.
