ART AS I SEE IT

I live and work in a rural area just west of Madison, Wisconsin. Our piece of land falls within the Driftless or Unglaciated section of southwestern Wisconsin. Its beauty is singular and very sweet.

​

Being surrounded by this natural beauty and seeing the constant changes through the seasons inspires me to view all my subjects with a fresh eye. Seeing how each season has an impact on the landscape transforming it into a completely unique view informs my approach to its interpretation.

​

My artwork comes from my emotional and visual response to my surroundings while traveling as well. I am never without my supplies for art making.

​

I am finding that with countless sketches and paintings behind me- I am venturing forward in working from imagination in watercolor, oil and cut paper collage. This highlights just one of the reasons I am so passionate about art. I am never "done" and I will never "arrive." Creativity is limitless.

​

My work is included in art collections both private and corporate- nationally and internationally.

Commissions

This commissioned painting is of a view from the Ben Lomond Trail in Queenstown, New Zealand. The view took my client's breath away and I strove to capture that feeling for them by composing the art in a way that showcased the beauty of the expanse going out to the ocean and sky. 

​

My clients were thrilled with the result.

Please contact me if you have a special memory that you would like turned into a piece of art.
