About The Artist
Artist Statment
I am interested in painting as an expressive force using emotion, memory, music and hope. I am a sea painter at heart.
My parents were classical musicians, and as a child I studied the cello and worked at my mothers’ music school. I became a painter, but I still use a musical approach.
