My grandfather Jack had a big framed map of the United States in his home that had raised areas wherever there are mountains. I LOVED looking at it...imagining the world from the air, all of us so tiny, connected by pathways, winding rivers, patterns we forget from the ground. Jack put a little red heart sticker on every place our extended family lived. All the dots across the map that connected us across time and space..all these puzzle pieces that fit together when viewed from a higher perspective. Since Bob, Emma, Lilly and I moved from Salem, VA to Phoenix, AZ two years ago, I have thought much about what makes a place home...I have looked at the world out of a plane window many times as the colors turn from brown, tan and purple to emerald green and blue. I lived in Salem for 45 years and the events of the last few weeks in my hometown have only solidified my love for this beautiful place. These are my new series of paintings A HIGHER PERSPECTIVE. Prints available for $60. PM me if interested! I know exactly where I can put my tiny heart stickers Granddaddy Jack.
...is a celebration of color, brushstroke, and good energy. I work as a stream of consciousness painter that relies on intuition and organic mark making. I see my canvases as a window to look into AND out of for inspiration. I specialize in personal commissions for home or business to suit your color palette and space. Colorful Good Energy for your home!
I am so proud of my new collection GATHERING IN THE GOOD. These paintings were inspired by my desire to elevate the
beauty, color and mystery of things growing and taking shape. Of dreams coming to fruition and goodness blossoming. I hope you can see
the joy, whimsy, and hope that I tried to convey...I like to imagine them glowing in a place of honor in your home reminding you of
the beautiful light and good energy in your life!
Gorgeous one of a kind fine art that will be the statement piece of your room. Make the magic yours.
