What I make is a part of me, as I am part of the one who made me. My highest aspiration is
for people to look at my work, and see something of the nature and likeness of God.

I married Jim in November of 1985. To live together for 21 years and still like each other, is
extraordinary. True love endures the tide of ever changing feelings. We have four amazing
children, Mike, Melissa, Rebecca and Rachael. Rachael was with us for almost three months,
nearly all of which she spent at Children's Hospital in San Diego. Losing her was the most
difficult thing I have ever experienced. Yet it was pure joy to know her and an honor to hold
her in my arms while she was birthed into eternity. Though she was taken from me in this life,
the time will come when we can never be separated. Mike, Melissa and Rebecca are brilliant,
creative people, whom I respect and admire. They are not only my children, they are three of
my best friends.

I began painting, almost by accident, in 1998. It has become one of the great pleasures of my
life. The lifestyle fits well with my whacky personality! Along this journey I have met some
rare and wonderful people. They are treasures I hold in my heart.

My artistic influences...
To travel the world,
God willing, maybe when
my kids are grown.
My ambition
"Our tokens of love are for the most part barbarous.
Cold and lifeless because they do not represent our life.
The only gift is a portion of thyself.
Therefore let the farmer give his corn;
the miner, a gem; the sailor, coral and shells;
the painter, his picture; and the poet, his poem."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Paul Cezanne
Chateau Noir
I love the way Cezanne used strong brushwork and
bold colors to convey movement. Achieving such
spontaneity is surprisingly difficult.

I study Cezanne frequently to break out of the habit
of merely copying an image. I especially enjoy his
still life and landscapes.

vague. This is not so much intentional on my part, but seems to be
a method I naturally employ, as pointed out by my son.

I saw "Girls at the Piano" in a travelling Renoir exhibit at the San
Diego Museum of Art a few years ago. I learned a great deal by
examining his brushwork up close. It was at the same exhibition
that I saw the nude below and became familiar with Frederick
Carl Frieseke, an American Impressionist influenced by Renoir.

Venus in the Sunlight
When I first saw this painting, I began to
understand the use of color to interpret light
which was the foundation of the Impressionist
Movement. It is an amazingly beautiful piece in
person. I learned more in a few moments, just
from looking at it, than in 9 years of study and
practice.
To feed, to clothe, to hold and love
children who have no one to do so.


To effectively convey to others
that we belong to each other, and
there is
nothing more valuable
than people.
Don't be a bad pirate!

Please don't rob me of due compensation for my work.
It's against the law and it's just not nice!

(Aarrgh, intellectual booty!)
We relocated here during the Summer of 2006, and I really enjoyed it. It is a beautiful, peaceful
place, with much to inspire an artistic mind. From the hardworking people in the strawberry
fields to my good friend, the Pacific, I could never run out of things to paint.

Sailboats & sea birds are some of my favorite things. I love living near the ocean.
Ah Pacifica
Sunshine and bare feet
Where the hippies and the yuppies meet
Live together and dream of peace

Ah Pacifica
You swallow us and spit us out as children,
Careless and cute
You wash away our pretense
And our business suits
You may wash away our castles too
But we'll be back to build them all anew
