Welcome to my website! The colors, textures, images, ideas and attitudes of the West are inspirations for my painting. I especially love to draw upon my observations of the horse, their social interactions and their unique connection to humans. These subjects are a vehicle for my journey of discovery. I love finding new ways to apply paint, combine color, create texture and compose paintings.

 As I work, I keep in mind my original inspiration, but am also constantly on the lookout for the painting’s own spark of life that seems to evolve during the creative process, that spark being the true joy of creating.
