When you are in the San Diego area, please come experience my art at my new gallery.  I am inspired by the smell, sound, energy, and healing presence of the ocean. To create a painting, I don’t just follow a technically trained formula. I have studied painting for 41 years.  Instead, I bring all of my physical experiences of the coastline- surfing, diving, walking the shore, sunset and sunrise obsessions- onto the canvas. I hope within my paintings you will feel and remember all five senses, and the freedom of a timeless moment.  ​

I received my Bachelor of Fine Art from the University of Notre Dame, with a debut show at the Snite Museum of Art. Today I paint during beautiful outdoor excursions and also back in my gallery studio.  For updates on my newest releases, and current features in art festivals and galleries, sign up for my monthly newsletter and follow me on Instagram.

Specifically about my resin technique:

Resin paintings are composed with multiple layers of dyed resin pours and acrylic brush painting to echo the depth and movement of the ocean habitat. The resin pouring process suspends the action of the waves as it gradually hardens into a reflective water-like surface. I hope you always feel welcome to touch and move around the artwork as you peer past the reflective initial surface of the ocean.
