 "Sea Light" |
As a former educator, I have taught art in public and private schools and at the college and university level. I received a BS in Art from East Tennessee State University and an MFA from Florida State University. For the past twenty-five years, I have worked in oils, acrylics and watercolors. I am a member of several professional art organizations including Southern Colours, Southern Watercolor Society, Georgia Watercolor Society, Portrait Society of Atlanta, and the Atlanta Artists Center. I exhibit work in local, state and national competitions and have received numerous awards in watercolor and oil painting. My work has been featured on the Atlanta Artist Center’s web site and shown in local publications. My subject matter is eclectic in nature and includes portraits, landscapes, still life and figures drawn from life. I paint from sketches made on the scene and sometimes use photographs of the scene for reference. The effect of light is the main element in my paintings. I give emphasis to light’s angle, its brightness, and the manner in which light and color constantly interact and affect the subject of a painting. There are moments when the effects of light seem extraordinary and it is the capturing of this effect that defines my work.
