It is amazing how fast the years fly by. May the beauty of nature fill everyone's heart with peace and joy throughout the new year. Here is my teaching schedule for the winter of 2013.
I use transparent watercolor to express my feelings about the natural world. My art is motivated by the dynamic beauty that I find around me. The diversity of the world is very inspiring. I strive to show the variety of life from the most silent and simple to the extremes of noise and wildness. Although my painting is often representational, I do not try to reproduce a photographic image of a certain location, exactly as it appears to the eye, but rather I wish to capture the essence of my personal understanding of place. Lying somewhere between the abstract and the realistic, I wish to convey a sensation or an experience; such as a quality of light, a feeling of isolation, a storm, a season, or the beauty observed in a combination of color and/or form.
