I've been painting intermittently for about 20 years. Art and nature have always been extremely important in my life. Previously, I mostly used acrylic on canvas, but have recently started experimenting with watercolors and other mediums. I love the feeling of starting a painting with an idea in mind and watching its evolution. I often surprise myself with the results. I am open to all forms of art and creativity, and I enjoy learning new skills and techniques.

Tentacles
This piece took several months to complete. I don't even know how long it took because I worked on it intermittently for a long time. I started with the 8 orange tentacles spreading out over the canvas, then once those were complete, I added the layers of blues, line by line. The final step was to add the suckers to the tentacles. The pattern wraps around the sides of the canvas, too. I love the colors and the motion in this piece!
