This is the finished painting that I was working on as the photo was taken at the Maitland Art Center. I started it with just some blobs of yellow and pink and then continued to add negative space lines and shapes.

These are recent paintings that were begun at the Tom Jones workshop last month. They are currently a part of my exhibit on display at the Winter Park Hospital.

This is the abstract floral that will be displayed at the Maitland Art Center for the "PARTICIPATION" event May 3-16th. I was delighted to be chosen as one of the 25 artists to be featured for this big annual fundraiser at MAC. It will be fun to do paintings in the park Saturday, the 16th, for patrons who buy my time at auction.

This is "Garden of Eden" naturally named because of the snake form that emerges from among the leaf forms. It started out like several others in the "Garden" series with plastic over multi-colored washes.

This is "Garden of Delights" the first in the "Garden" series, that was begun by using experimental techniques instead of a specific plan. For this painting I used plastic wrap over a multi-colored wash. When dry the plastic is removed and the painting sort of tells me what it wants to become. It's then my job as an artist to decide where to apply color in values of light and dark so that everyone else will be able to see what I see. This painting was recently selected for a National Museum of Women in the Arts show at the Gateway Center for the Arts.

This is a painting of our dog, Holmes, or "Sherlock Holmes" formally. I was experimenting with a three color palate and was happy with how the dark burgundys looked for shadowy areas.

This is a watercolor done from a photo of the Iowa farm taken in June - loved the shadows!
