Primarily a painter, my regional landscapes, painted in oil, capture the rural flavor of the Wood River Valley in Idaho where I’ve lived and worked for over 40 years. Previously, California coastal areas were my genre. My love of the ocean and its awesome infinity equals the grandeur and peace of the mountains— infinite subjects for paintings. My “artist’s eye” seeks both the extra-ordinary and the ordinarily-overlooked moments in nature, and presents them in a way for the viewer to see what I’ve seen—and loved enough to want to share it. My training in graphic design at Art Center School in Los Angeles served me well when I turned my creative skills to easel painting, this then enabled me to move with ease and enthusiasm when sculpture ‘found me’, and I learned to see —in 3 dimensions now! My sculptures are figurative, of people or animals, and I seem to have special ability to capture the likeness and personality of my subjects, exhibited at National Sculpture Society in NYC
