Artist

Medium
Painting - Watercolor On Arches 140# Cold Press Paper
Description
This image was selected to be the poster image for the 2015 Bainbridge in Bloom Festival, Bainbridge Island, WA. The dark background sets off the curling tentacle that is reaching out from a hungry bloom, as is the lower leaf that balances all the flowers in the upper corner. So, I titled this painting "Reaching". The design is striking as my duvet cover!
In 2016 I was selected to be the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival poster artist!
For the past few years I've been painting flowers up so close that they envelop the viewer in their sensuality and rich color. Enlarged, they become almost abstractions from nature without seeing the outer shape or the environment around them.
In 2012 I qualified to be a signature member of the Northwest Watercolor Society (NWWS). This is earned by being juried into a select number of local chapter and international watercolor society shows sponsored by NWWS. The initials now follow my recent watercolor paintings.
