I was busy drawing what I saw around me in nature as a child. At age twelve I was excited to be at the Orlando Institute of Art founded by Ralph Bagley. Mr. Bagley, recently named one of the Art Legends of Orange County, Florida, showed me the importance of taking time to observe the subject to be painted...he demonstrated the basics of drawing and seeing the effects of light on color. As an adult I learned the indirect methods of the ‘Old Masters’ and the joy of Plein Air painting with award winning painter, Tom W. Sadler. Wow...it’s been a lifetime of pleasure doing commissioned portraits, landscapes and abstracts. I’m never bored when involved with art...Anyone can learn to paint if they take classes, studying art books, dvd’s, and attend curated art galleries and museum tours. My goal while painting is to capture the essence of any subject by portraying the light as it reveals form and color. My weekly artist’s life? A day is for private mentoring, a day is Open Studio with other painters at the Mount Dora Center for the Arts, a day is Plein Air painting with the Florida Painters Group...two days are studio painting, meeting clients and handling business aspects. Interspersed are Plein Air events, Quick Draw events and Mount Dora Art Strolls. Teaching, demonstrating painting for groups and judging painting exhibitions are all part of an exhilarating life as a painter. I’m blessed to have a supportive husband and family.
