Come with me to a place where reality and imagination merge in two dimensional space."

"...insatiably creative with a love and lust for nature's beauty..."

"...the breath of nature is in her representational paintings of land, water, and floralscapes.  And what she learns from representational painting flows into her abstracted and fantastical excursions."

"... broad range of interests may work against her. She refuses to be put into a box, as that would keep her from following her creativity. She feels that artists must follow their feelings to the new thoughts and feelings they can offer - that's their job."
