That Light

This painting was inspired by a vintage photograph that I love. The image has a gentle and relaxing appeal to it. She looks to be resting in the warmth of the sunlight, one of my favorite things to do.

Ballerina

It's me who is doing the stretching. :) My favorite art and long-term dream has been of painting quiet, vulnerable women. I have always surrounded myself with paintings of angels and other ladies--an energy healer told me they are my protectors. Working towards my goal with this one.

Bowl of Light

I couldn't resist painting these mandarins as they caught the light in my kitchen.

Antique Lamp

This beautiful stained-glass lamp is one of a set that has been with me since I had my very first place some 20 years ago. It also happens to be one of the very first things I ever tried to draw 10 years or so ago. This painting makes me realize just how far I've come with my art during that time!

Shining Through

This large prism hangs above my kitchen sink. It was given to me two decades ago by a friend and I've always treasured it. The other day I took it down to clean and the sun lit it all up, casting little rays of light under it. It felt quite festive and magical.

Light From Darkness

Elephants have always been one of my favorite things to paint. They are such large and peaceful animals that represent strength, good fortune, wisdom, patience, family, and society. I love how in this one, it seems to be light coming out of the darkness.
