Sometimes I paint to create a mysterious mood, to tell stories of time, place, myth, experience, and sometimes I paint to capture
just what is in front of me. I believe that the separation of fine art, illustration, and crafts into divisions is arbitrary. I work
in many ways and mediums depending on my purpose and mood, and sometimes I combine them all. My work begins with some natural forces
and a need to communicate. My influences have been: the natural world, the medieval world of asceticism, and flat pattern, high colors,
design and symbols.
Education: University of Connecticut, Storrs; further classes at the Kansas City Art Institute, KC, MO; and the
Hill Institute, Florence, MA.
