Artistic freedom in exploring outdoor venues; capturing new scenes.  The latitude about 180 miles North of Miami offers an artist's full palette of differing nature scenes, trees, rivers, such as Myakka Park, Oscar Scherer park, Florida Everglades and gorgeous beaches of Venice, Florida.   Though I began painting during undergrad, my professional art career was jump started by the mentoring of artist and friend,  the late A.E. Backus at his studio in Fort Pierce, Florida.  

The challenge and enjoyment in creating each painting, involves application, maneuvering, designing, re-designing, mixing, re-mixing, layering, some glazing, and lots of thinking and studying.   Variations in my art include traditional representational art, botanical abstracts and abstracts.
