Living on the water in Sausalito is inspirational and fuels my creative practice, as does all of the majestic beauty and unique landscapes surrounding me in the Bay Area!

 My lifelong passion for transformational healing practices, color combinations, synchronicities, magic and spiritual journeys are also key drivers in my work.

I let the materials, interactions of colors, and intuition lead the way and inform the painting… I celebrate the aha moments and try and stay patient with the sluggish or stuck periods, which inevitably push me into what Carl Jung would call the shadow parts of myself, always guiding me in new ways, and one might even say, create character in the piece.

This way of painting is a process, which creates a multilayerd painting with lots of depth and luminosity.

For me, the most successful paintings  are the ones that feel alive and have a presence, ones that hold the essence of the beautiful landscapes that surround me,  telling a story without words.
