Interests

  • General

    art, painting, psychology, science, children, engineering, home improvements, design, reading, philosophy, anime, ...

  • Music

    Whatever my teenagers are into at the time (I mean nine inch nails, come on but I love it). Also, of course things that would embarrass them like the Dixie Chicks. I love the Bare Naked Ladies too. My music life consists of whatever I load onto my mp3 player and wear while I cook and clean. :(

  • Movies

    Matrix, Harry Potter, Blades of Glory, Talledega Nights, Juno was brilliant. Hard to find good films lately. Are we really defined by what we consume? These questions give us that impression...

  • Television

    House, Bones, American Idol, HGTV, TLC - not much these days.

  • Books

    Mostly manga recently. I am a Naruto freak. My kids tease me constantly. Ninjas and cool artwork - who wouldn't love that!?

  • Heroes

    My Grandparents, parents, uncle, brother, and husband... .. .. .. .. ..

About me:

I have been painting for 13 years. The common thread in my work is a strong attention to and affection for composition and expressive drawing and color. I find large shapes arranged into exciting compositions, personal line work, and deep, rich color and texture visually stimulating.
