ARTIST AT WORK
There are endless places to paint as a plein air artist. I love to pack my bag with a camera and art supplies for a day's adventure. This may require walking along a rocky coastline or to wait for a beautiful sunset to appear over a distant mountain range. BOTANICAL ILLUSTRATION
I fell in love with botanical illustration while residing in an old gardener's cottage in the US Virgin Islands. Years later, I took a two year Natural Science Illustration Certificate program at the Rhode Island School of Design, focusing on illustrating flowering plants. 
OTHER WORK
As a fine artist, it is important to me in continuing to enhance my skills whether it may involve working in a daily sketchbook or in taking a figure drawing class.

IN THE STUDIO
Many of my plein air paintings, sketches, watercolor studies and photography make their way back into the studio room as a source for reference while creating larger scale paintings.
