It's important to note that I primarily work abstractly, however I am academically trained. I'm available sporadically as I work non-traditional hours full time. I am often available Sunday afternoons or Mondays, and occasionally Wednesdays mid-day. I focus on the student's needs and cater to each individually.

Title or Location: On my dining room table
I painted this to commemorate an amazing mentor. - my college philosophy professor. This is actually Nietzsche, someone he deeply admired. Since I admired my professor, it seemed fitting to paint this in his memory. He passed away after I graduated, but his impact on my college education stayed with me forever.

I visited Jurien Bay last year in spring.Almost 50 km South east of the bay is the Badgingarra National Park where there were beautiful wild pink Everlasting flowers but it was this the tree that caught my eye. It looked so majestic amongst them.

Title or Location: I did not take the photo. I believe it is a stock photo. I painted this painting as a study painting hair/fur and grass/sky.
I am meeting with a group of artists using watercolor over zoom. They are mostly in VA, but the leader/teacher is in Midland now. We are taking on a project to paint an EPIC painting larger than we are accustomed to in order to stretch ourselves. We decided on the animal/ outdoor ranch/farm theme. I am very new to watercolor so I welcomed the challenge. Since then I had the nerve to paint my cat and dog. It is an enjoyable experience. I'm on to painting a horse now.
