“Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life”

Pablo Picasso

 

One of my greatest joys is to convey the beauty of my surroundings using canvas, paint brush and a rich palette of muted and bold paints. The lush countryside of rolling hills, beautiful flowers, lush greenery and vibrant community markets are what I love to share in my work. I love flowers! I love to grow them in my garden, give as gifts and buy at the local market. I love to extend their life through my paintings so they can be enjoyed by others long after they have lost their beauty.

I am a watercolor and oil artist living in beautiful Southside Virginia with my husband, Phil and our Shetland Sheepdog, Cassie. I am one of eight children, a Mother of three, and “GiGi” to three grandsons, Henry, Will, Rowan, and a granddaughter, Remington. ❤️
