Recapturing my love of art in these last few years has been a wonderfully enriching journey. Exploring different subject matter and styles has helped to free up my painting and I look forward to new artistic adventures. Working with acrylics has allowed me to utilize on on hand, water colour type effects, and at the other extreme, rigid chunky texture that simulates bark. Each of my paintings is a personal experience and I take pleasure in them bringing some reflection or delight to others.
