Paintings on my easel, Daydreams in my hair, Horses in the barn And dogs everywhere!

I am a Visual Creatrix powered by hoof and heart beats, the sound of wings in flight and the rhythm of distant drums.

All around me I find inspiration - my joy is to live it and then capture the essence through my art and share it with you.

The original paintings that the images on this site derive from are frequently created in acrylic paint, inks and watercolor. I also love the process of working with old or meaningful papers to collage in to the work to add texture, layers and to reveal little glimpses and sometimes, messages. I generally paint on canvas, wood board, canvas paper and watercolor paper - and I love painting on teabags, too!

Animals are heavily featured and as a lifelong professional in the equine industry, it comes as no surprise that horses make appearances. Native American culture, nature and symbolism are all images that come to life on my easel as I tell their stories in paint.

I am fortunate that my creations are enjoyed in homes around the globe, including the United States, Canada, South Africa, Australia and Europe.
