I love to paint special places...and there are so many on our beautiful planet! I am fortunate to be able to paint in picturesque places, travel and sample the delightful diversity of the cultures in Europe and the Caribbean.
Sometimes I paint 'en plein aire', or on location. I sit in a little cafe`, or stand on a street corner and sketch and paint. Curious neighbors watch me as I paint their house or street and come out to see. Sometimes they send their children out and I find myself offering the kids a chance to paint along with me...Mama usually comes out then with a pitcher of lemonade or tea and I find I have new friends...
I sell my work through my web galleries on line, and a very few select brick & mortar galleries. My 'home gallery' is the Tower Gallery on Sanibel Island. The Tower Gallery is situated in a charming old beach cottage (see image below). The Tower has been in existence for 25 years and I have the priviledge of sharing this wonderful space with 22 other talented artists.
I do not sell my works in street fairs or outdoor venues.
I create in my home studio most mornings, and whenever my schedule permits.
