Most recent work in progress! I've got the Beatles' Octopus's Garden running through my head on loop...

Just finished, now showing at The Grace! Part painting, part sculpture, with layers of resin, this one turned out pretty cool! Titled "Surfacing." 12x36 on canvas

New piece showing at The Grace Galleries in Laguna! Titled "Aumakua," which means spirit animal in Hawaiian, because of some close encounters I had in Maui a few years ago!

It has been a very Octopus Summer at Laguna Art-A-Fair! The octopus is having a bit of a cultural moment these days (you've seen the Oscar-winning documentary, right?), and luckily I am genuinely fascinated by them, so I keep painting...and they keep selling!

Not an Octopus--you caught that, I'm sure--but this angry little bird yelled at a passing art lover and demanded to go home with him. Fear the Fluff.

Somebody pinch me!! My diptych won 1st place AND the Division at the Orange County Fair! That's TWO pretty ribbons I get to bring home!!!

Featured prominently in my booth at Art-A-Fair is "Starcatcher"! On a huge 30x40 gesso board panel, I used acrylic and metallic paints, and then layer after layer or pour resin--some colored with shimmery mica powder, some crystal clear--to create depth and texture and suggest the flow of water currents.

My bunny artwork on a reclaimed cabinet door, in its new home! Client was so delighted she sent me pictures! I love seeing where my art winds up...

My son is a baseball player. So I support him by painting a giant baseball crashing through his wall over his bed, because that's how much I love him.

No surface in my house is safe from my paintbrushes.

Commissioned by Whittier College as a gift for the President of the College upon her retirement, full of personal details.
