About My Art
With finely
detailed ink drawings combined with
delicate watercolors I strive to express the subtle
beauty I see in nature, animals, birds, flowers, shells,
local scenes, architecture, children and
the sea and sky,
I enjoy making little pins that depict my art,
designing cards & tee-shirts
and painting on other things.
I also work with acrylics and love taking photos.
A large selection of my prints and originals
pins, cards and more are
available at my studio or via my website.
