Introduction | I have been a professional painter for over 15 years. My inspiration comes from my life growing up in a small town in Upstate New York. I love expressing myself through my spirituality including, but not limited to, Goddess, God, Wicca and fairy symbols and forms. I first began oil painting in 1983, and created mostly landscapes. Naturally, I used my painting to portray the worlds I could only imagine in those books. While working toward my BS in studio art, I studied many of the prominent artists, which gave my work the variation and style it needed. I started to use techniques developed by many artists’ of the past, such as O’Keefe and Renoir, to enhance my work. Today, I like to combine many elements from landscapes with fantasy art. Many of the fantasy creatures from the past appear as natural creatures, which help to create a beautiful, peaceful painting that would compliment any home. Sculpting with various clays is another medium I use to express my feelings. The tiny little creatures I make all have different personalities and expressions. I am looking forward to exploring more with this exciting and challenging medium for many years to come. |
