Pastel and oils are the mediums used in my landscapes, which are inspired by historical locations and places with character. I am attracted to the light that projects the beautiful colors on the subject area. I consider my pastel landscapes to express realism with a sense of impressionism and my oils have more impact of depth and distance.

My subjects tend to be a diverse mix of targets of opportunity: sweeping
weatherscapes, mechanical and architectural forms and patterns, intimate
close-ups of natural objects. I enjoy revealing frequently unnoticed mundane
details, as in the textures and colors of a weather-beaten structure, the
random litter underfoot on a beach, sidewalk, or forest floor.

Iris folding is a paper folding technique that originated in Holland. It is called iris folding because the center of the design, the part usually filled with a shiny paper, resembles the iris of an eye. Originally, old envelopes were used for iris folding. In Holland, the inside of envelopes came in all kinds of colors, plain, or with various patterns, such as stars, dots, stripes, and company logos. The paper was cut into strips, folded, and used to fill in simple or intricate cut out patterns. I use all kinds of paper, including hand made paper, rice paper, and origami paper, in my iris folding. I also use ribbon and fabric.

The most common words to describe my art would be psychadelic and somewhat surrealistic. I paint a lot of symmetrical shapes and patterns with the use of bright colors and I like to incorporate realistic images of animals or plants and insects. So far I haven't intended any particular meaning behind any of the paintings but I think the paintings tell their own story.

Photography began as a means of preserving railroad history and has expanded to include landscapes, nature details, buildings, animals and textures. I’m fascinated with observing the same scene through changing seasons and lighting. My intent is to convey a sense of childlike wonder.

The color blends for NightOrbs™ result from my own reactions to color and light. The soft light and luminous color bring a new dimension to nighttime gardens. My vision in creating NightOrbs™ was to marry the healing effects of light, color and nature into a lasting, original piece of landscape art that can be enjoyed in gardens year-round - and for years to come!

As a photographer, I enjoy creating images that play with our perception.
Although I could just as well create the images digitally, instead, I
physically construct sets and props in real spaces in an attempt to make the
viewer do a double take. Not everything is what it seems to be.

As an assemblage artist, I try to re-create beauty or relativity out of the discarded, broken, and abandoned found objects juxtaposed with my own original 2-d art, old photographs, and words. Disassembling, modifying and altering are an intricate and intuitive process as is the actual collecting of the objects and materials. Creating art that reveals the beauty in something otherwise considered an eyesore or showing the ugliness in an image or thing that is considered desirable is a consistent pursuit in my study of contrasts.

My work is based on montages that merge images, both photos and film, with
sound to create an overall mood and theme. By observing the work, the viewer is
encouraged to experience a new perspective of aesthetics, explore an idea from
another direction and most of all, arrive at their own conclusions.
