I have a passion for children and for flowers. I enjoy walking in parks and around the neighborhood for inspiration. I also enjoy walking on the beach, all year round, as I am drawn by the ocean and the power of its waves. I have done several paintings of flowers and children, and have recently begun painting animals. On my way from church one day, I observed two chipmunks on a wild chase around bushes. I came home and told my four year old niece about it and she wanted to know their names. I did some research on why these chipmunks might be chasing and tackling each other, as if engaged in a game of tag. I found out that this was not playtime for them, but a war during mating season! They were males!
I paint what I see as the beauty of my subjects which reflects the beauty of our creator. I feel it very strongly in the walks along the ocean. Having grown up in Newport, Rhode Isand, I learned to appreciate and enjoy living near the water.
I hope you enjoy may art and if you have questions, contact me.
