Is there one style of art that you haven't done, but would love to try one day?
Sculpture. I am a big fan of Auguste Rodin in particular. I may take a sculpture class someday, but I was a disaster at pottery, so unfortunately that may be foretelling.
How would you describe your art to first-time viewers?
Expect to see a colorful palette. I am continually inspired by my everyday surroundings and I gravitate towards painting lots of landscapes, gardens, rivers, coastal water, fields, flowers and animals. Really, the everyday things that surround us. I am awed on a daily basis by what I discover and observe in nature when I am walking. So much to be noticed… I often paint a lot with my palette knives, so there is a lot of texture. Rarely am I a precise painter. My artwork is not a place I like to feel constraint..
