As a nature artist and an aquatic artist I am synthesizing nature, water and working with my hands. With the art I want to convey the complexity and mystery of the world above and beneath the surface. The work is pastel or pastel combined with acrylic. The large murals, “Healing Walls”, are acrylic. In my more traditional, very realistic ‘Inventory Series’, the subjects are varied. I credit the versatility in art to the influence of my own ever changing life experiences.
