Painting in my studio

Fascinated both by color and detail, I like to zoom in on nature, capturing the blooms, birds and busy insects, that are all around us in Chatham County.

Starting with photographs, doodles, and sketches, I try to carefully plan my approach but, in the end, watercolor happens!

My work tends toward rich, joyful color, a realistic, detailed focal point with a more interpretive background.

I paint what I see. I hope you like it.
