In these past few months, I’ve been taking more risks with my images and pushing the edges.  Diagnosed with breast cancer earlier this year changed the way I work in my studio:  I’m more willing to explore, move beyond inhibitions, and dance with the paint!  These works for our “Impulse” library show come from that new place. 

In this series, you will see a lot of chairs. I’m attracted to chairs because they invite me to sit (which I’ve done a lot this year) or they tell a story.  In some of these paintings, their structure is altered in exciting ways and the space is freely energized.

It’s always time to celebrate and especially as we enter 2012. So, you will see balloons, party hats, and bursting flowers among the chairs.  May you be inspired to celebrate your own creative impulses!

My work for our Impulse art show reflects discoveries made while painting plein air at five local beaches. Each has it's own treasure, whether it be a giant 500 year old cedar log, the ferry making it's last turn, or two beached boat hulls from the 30's and 40's.

Painting these images has been so exciting to me! It has given me a new appreciation for the water and beaches that surround us. When painting, I stop and SEE, and enjoy the weather, sounds and smells of the moment. I'd like the viewer to feel the impetus to explore our unique and invaluable shorelines.
