I have always participated in the visual arts including watercolors, drawing and sketching, pen and ink, and photography. Since retiring from teaching I have devoted much of my time to watercolors, sometimes combining them with pen and ink or collage.
Watercolor is the perfect medium to capture the beauty that surrounds us. I love to travel, and sketch and paint wherever I go. Painting, especially on location, captures the spirit and life of the subject. I hope to continue doing that for a long time to come.

I hope the sun has finally come out up there -- we're now sweltering and wishing for the rain!
You did such a good job on this. Very lovely.
Ron - Thank you sooooo much!
Lin - Thank you!! I love cactus blooms but I've only got one or two photos of my own from CA. We've had a bit of sun, but it is storming today.
Jeanne - It was a photo that drew me in. Thanks.
This is REALLY fabulous. Wonderful moody shadows.
