ARTIST STATEMENT:
*My first MEMORY of being an artist…
Kindergarten art brought home to show Mom and Dad…Outline of a horse colored with brown crayon most likely to learn “Hh”…

My dad was approving and offered a suggestion… if I colored with the crayon in the direction that the hair grew on the horse, it would look REAL!!!
My dad has passed away, and I HOPE that he knows how much those simple words of encouragement changed my life forever. That was the first defining moment for me, as an artist.
I have often thought that it would be fun to try other painting techniques, but I can never turn off my excitement and fascination for the tiniest and often overlooked details. I must paint them!!!
These details are everywhere and they help tell the STORIES. Look for them and listen for your own stories.
