My clock faces are watercolors. I make the wooden shadow boxes. Mitered
pieces or shaped designs, which I paint with acrylics, complete the front. I
bend and paint hands to compliment each clock. Small paintings are acrylic
and colored pencil on wood, the sides are painted with interesting patterns.

Copper, aluminum, metal, paper, wire mesh and wood are collaborated
over sand base background texture over canvas. Transparent layers of
paint sprayed at different stages. Copper sheet is cut and hammered and
wire mesh is hand shaped into three-dimensional forms.

Textural composition is most important in the body of work. Using layers of
heavily-bodied plasters, that are custom colored and mixed, results in various
peaks and valleys creating dimension and interest. The artists’ goal is to create
a body of work that draws the viewer in, up close, tempting them to touch.

Inspired by music, nature, friends, and family, each painting has a story.
The end result comes from layers of imagination, play, and a desire to
create whimsical and happy art.

Thought provoking, and motivational texts are interpreted with layouts
designed to enhance the meaning and increase the visual impact.
Techniques such as collage, etching, embossing, gilding, paper cutting,
marbling, and copper embossing give added emphasis.

An exploration of texture, my sand paintings use natural, un-dyed sand
collected from around the world by a network of friends and family. I
enjoy experimenting with the medium. Most of my pieces are realistic:
landscapes and portraits.

I juxtapose opposites to create a dynamic image, including diverse surfaces
and divergent textures (relief vs. transparency of layers). Impasto and many
layers of acrylic paint,gesso,paper,textiles and other collage elements are
used in effort to create a diverse surface and more depth in the painting.

After sketches are made I paint everything adding fine details with pattern
paper made from the sketch. Adding acrylic and ink on top of that and
sealing with a gel medium. Sometimes I paint the animals on watercolor
paper and cut them out to add to the painting.

Each painting begins with a pencil drawing on watercolor paper. Using a
fine-tipped waterproof ink pen, I use stippling to add shading and texture.
Adding watercolor is the final step. I love nature and art history, and often
use historical design motifs in my work.

Influenced by nature and animals, I piece together whimsical collages
using both recylced and new papers which I tear to get the desired
shapes. The images are pasted onto canvas and then sealed to protect the
finished piece of art.
