"I am drawn to watercolor as a medium because it is spontaneous and
uncontrollable. The thought that you can capture motion and color in water adds to the mediums excitement. My Paintings are full of life and movement; they have an architectural but vitreous quality. Every time I pick a subject to paint, I enjoy finding its form and ultimately its sensuality. I think my paintings are life affirming and joyful and reflect my never ending awe and interest in nature and the miracles surround me every day." I am particularly excited about The Art Fusion space because it gives me an opportunity to show my larger pieces. The atmosphere in the Gallery suits my work and personality with its creative curating.
