Upper Wisconsin, Washington DC

The panel beautifully encases the painting, with its frame-like design and floating illusion enhancing the overall presentation by creating the impression that the painting is suspended in mid-air. Measuring 8 inches in the painting area with a 1.5-inch border, this durable and professionally made panel not only accentuates the art but also lends a sophisticated touch to any space. Ready to hang, it makes an ideal gift or a delightful addition to your home."

My Rain and Shine oil painting series is based on photos combined as a play between reality and abstraction. Influenced by the Bokeh effect of the blur created by out of focus images, I've spent many a rainy day photographing the world through my windshield as an inspiration for my rain paintings.

Water and light combine to create a sense of peace and momentum.

In these moments, I'm reminded to take a minute to just be. To pause and appreciate life as it is, and to recognize the beauty of the present moment. To allow myself to feel the fullness of life and to recognize the power of the present.

Images from nature continue to inspire my work through landscapes, beach scenes and unique flower compositions. My work has been exhibited in galleries and juried shows in Washington DC, London, Burlington VT, Arizona, Prague.
