Lavender Fields

Oil on canvas

The lavender fields of Ojai California seemed like a good subject for this time of year.

Walking among the flowers calming fragrance you can almost imagine yourself in the fields of Provence France.

Far Vista

Far Vista

My painting "Far Vista" is an impression of what I saw on a recent hike.

The painting was done entirely with palette knives on a toned canvas.

I made a short video showing "How I start my palette knife paintings"
and hope to have it up on Instagram Far Vista once it is finished!

Wish me Luck!

A Little About Me

As a military wife, I had the opportunity to study classical oil painting for three years while living in Europe.
I lived in a small town surrounded by the Belgium countryside. During this time I also learned scenery painting with the local theater group.
When I returned to the United States, I re-enrolled in college and majored in Fine Art.

I have always been fascinated with painting, I remember being in an artist's home when I was about six, and "really looking" at the paintings wondering "how" they were made? This sense of wonder about painting has held my attention all-of-my-life.

Today, I still study painting daily, and continuously look for inspiration for that next painting!
