Early Fall in the Studio, getting ready for our upcoming studio market.

Inspiration for the new season.

An end of summer party and a small collection of new paintings.

When you ask a friend to photograph you at work.

Studio days that turn into nights, the scent of palo santo and soft pastel mark making.

Studio life lately — cool tropical days, open doors, canyon colors and late afternoons painting with friends. February is quite lovely so far

My studio so far … I have always believed in creating a beautiful space around you, one filled with found objects that inspire you to want to create amongst them…

The last days of summer were spent back in the studio after 3 months on the road. This new collection is inspired by the moody blues and greens of the central California coast.

For as long as I can remember, I have been driven by art. First by painting and playing in clay, then by the art of sound and performance. These days I am driven by the art of all things visual.
