oil on board

This painting shows a beach without pollution with birds who are able to safely feed. The wave brings in food for the birds. For all life on earth a clean environment is necessary. If we care for the world and its creatures, we too will survive for generations to come. If we don't, the earth will recover without us.

My painting style ranges from abstraction to realism. Subject matter is potentially unlimited, including landscapes/seascapes, portraits, figures and still life. I am especially drawn to painting water in its many forms in nature.

In 2023 I had a painting accepted by the de Young 2023 Open. I have a B.S. in History from Occidental College and am a retired Marriage and Family Therapist.
