Artist Statement:
Finding inspiration in my surroundings is the key to my happy place. Sometimes I am moved by a bird in my backyard or across the globe. Color, movement, forms in everyday scenes bring me joy. I love to capture moments in time and to share them with others. Nature amazes me in all its forms.
