My newest series, the Fusion series, is a blending of my Rock Wall series and my Book series. The Book series uses the natural aging of very old book pages to create muted tones and subtle textures. In the Rock Wall series, strong and complex textures become the canvas for bold earth tones. Together they present the opportunity to stretch my ideas in new and interesting ways. Another new series is the Woven Canvas series. It too presents challenging textural background for my work. Please visit one of my galleries (listed on the bio page) and let me know what you think. Illustration is another passion. Illustrations are in a classic style to complement my collection of original children’s stories. My first illustrated children’s book, Farm Friends, was written by Anna Roan and published by Houghton Mifflin. I am exited to have been invited to participate in the Best of Worldwide Mixed Media Artists book published in 2011.

Mixed media, oil and acrylic paintings have a gallery wrap; the painting extends around the sides of the canvas, making framing unnecessary. Sold paintings are indicated with a ♦ .
