A native of California, I have been painting the California landscape for 35-years and perhaps best known for painting in the medium of watercolors. Settling on the Monterey Peninsula some 20-years ago my paintings have been exhibited in fine arts galleries in Carmel, Monterey Pacific Grove and solo exhibitions including the Pacific Grove Art Center.

Five years ago, following monotype classes with Robyn Smith, and studies with Paul Roehl at Monterey Peninsula College, I grew increasingly passionate for the print medium. The building of my prints, often combining monotype with intaglio, woodblock, or chene collé, this hands-on technical precision continues to surprise and inform my evolution as an artist.Working with my own printing press in my Cannery Row studio I divide my time between painting and printing. I paint with oils, pastels, acrylic and watercolors.

My professional affiliations in northern California include the Society of Western Artists, the East Bay Watercolor Society and San Francisco Women Artists. I remain an active member of the Monterey Peninsula Art Foundation, the Santa Cruz Art League,and Artists Equity.

My paintings have been exhibited in numerous prestigious invitational and juried shows including San Francisco’s Kaiser Mensinine Gallery, Crown C. Zellerbach Building, Hall of Flowers, Golden Gate Park, Olive Hyde Gallery, Fremont,CA, as well as Pacific Grove Museum of Natural History, Santa Cruz Art League, Pacific Grove Art Center, and the annual Monterey County Artists Studio Tour.
