BEAUTY CONNECTS US ALL

“Let the beauty we love be what we do. There are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground.” Rumi

I paint as a way of connecting to the beauty of the earth in the places where I live. Painting also connects me to the creative heart of my own being. I love the craft of painting, both its tactile processes and its aesthetic challenges. Like any relationship it is ever changing. One moment it is challenging and the next effortless.

Many of my paintings are commissions requested by family friends on Pasley Island, where my family has had a cottage since 1952. It gives me joy to know those commissioned paintings are cherished by the families who own them. To see some of these paintings, visit my commissions page.
