Welcome. Thank you for coming to my site.

I love the physical realities of making art. I engage my imagination in illuminating ideas and personal allegory. Hearing the Pacific Ocean from my garden studio, I delight in the natural world surrounding me.

While veggies leaf and murmur, ideas ripen and sing. Enjoy!
