100 Words and a Picture


There are many untold stories behind the art that hangs in our gallery.

I would say, equally as interesting as the art itself.


How about telling your story, its easy and people want to hear it.

​How “Water” Came to Be
"A wonderful thing about art is that its expression is as limitless as the medium available to produce it."
Art requires a willingness to learn and to experiment. I started out exploring art through ceramics. Then came basketry followed by experimentation in 2D art through encaustic mono-print making.  As each medium was explored, varied and creative work was produced.  

The production of artistic work for me involves research and workshop attendance where learning and experimentation is encouraged. A recent workshop I attended exposed me to printmaking with acrylic paint on a Gelli plate. 

Happily, “Water” was a product of that workshop.
