I retired from Placer County 8 years ago and began traveling and painting on a daily basis. Everywhere I go now I look for shades and shadows and imagine how I would paint each new place. I’m never without my paint. This year, our travels took us to Southeast Asia. The color, the people, the music, they all inspired me.

When not traveling, I find inspiration in my gardens, and this year they did not disappoint. When we arrived home it was in full bloom. I am so fortunate to live in beautiful Placer County and to be a part of its vibrant and vital art community.

This year I am working hard to capture some of the wonders I have experienced across the globe and in my own back yard.
