I am a former interior designer and visual-display specialist whose extensive travels throughout the US, Europe, Mexico & the Caribbean have influenced and added to my love of art and the way I view my environment.
I am an artist of whom peers say, She paints with her camera. I create mainly abstract works by using special filters, lenses and camera techniques – breaking the rules - so that others can see this extraordinary world from my perspective. Lately I have taken it 1 step furthur and create what I call contemporary Impressionis. I've always loved the works of Cezanne,Manet and Monet and now can use some of those charactertistics on my work.
