Valentine Roses


Dennis gave me pink roses between our anniversary and valentines day; they inspired me to paint roses and after seeing a photo by Michiel Thomas, he graciously allowed me to use it as a painting reference.

Blown Away


When Maureen said that she was "blown away" at seeing these flowers, I decided to name them that because these wispy flowers wave and dance in the wind. They can be quite tall so they have strength in numbers to keep them from being totally blown down (much like us). Credit to Vicki G. for the photo.

Marsha's Peony


From a photo reference from Marsha on WcW; I've been wanting to try this Peony for quite some time; not entirely happy with the outcome, but stuck in a quest to conquor sunlight vs shadow.

About Me

My photo
As a child I began designing my own clothes while in 5th grade. Grandma let me use fabric from her stash and showed me how to use the treadle machine. My love for art and the creative began at that point, always having a current project of some kind. Painting has provided a unique creative outlet for me that I am thankful for, an exciting journey where there's always something new to learn.
