A Celebration!

Day Dream…

January 29, 2008 · 2 Comments

Bright lit windows usually put me in a daze, one of an enlivened imagination.
Capturing this moment on a cold winter morning had a drama of it’s own.
It seemed as if the small
Pie Bird was getting all steamed up at the blooming Purple–Red Oxalis,

I am a Painter / Graphic Artist very much interested in noticing the elusive…

Nature and the small mundane stuff I find extremely fascinating.

Patterns are one of my obsessions… Are patterns obsessive by nature ?

Making and creating is what makes me feel complete… so posting this blog is an act of joy!

May you return and discover…

Art Statement

When I take the time to look and to really see and to apply my "foolish" imagination, there are worlds within worlds within worlds to be discovered.
