Light and Color

                                 Twilight Marsh 40X30

     I am an artist enthralled by the light and color that I see in the natural world. I attempt to convert a scene or impression into a piece of art that will share that impression with the viewer. This piece reflects one of my favorite times of day, the evening.

I am an oil painter

    I've always seen with an artist eye, according to my mother, and living in rural Minnesota I have the opportunity to see an abundance of natural beauty right out my door. I am a converted oil painter. Having begun as a child using any scrap of paper available including newspaper margins, and progressing through the years to pastel, watercolor, acrylic and collage. I have found my true passion in oil paintings.
