Welcome, and thanks for visiting my website! I am a writer and painter residing in Annapolis, Maryland. I believe that our world is a giant WELCOME mat, inviting us to see and experience all we can imagine and more. In appreciation and as a good guest, I not only believe in enjoying life, but I want to do my share to make the party fun for everyone!
I paint to portray the joy I experience in the tiny whispers between the noisy events of life. Those moments where you can just "be" and behold the simple things as the miracles they are.
Writing is my way of giving life to "what if's" and shining light on the humor, ironies and surprises - welcome or otherwise - that are inherent in every human experience, large and small.
July, 2009. To my returning, faithful visitors:
Thank you for your patience! I have learned that following my creative spirit - my heart - is far more productive than trying to lead it. When given breathing room, this spirit finds and winds down paths filled with treasures and magical discoveries that might not otherwise show themselves; they could be easily overlooked when on a quest to accomplish a specific and rigid goal. My heart tells me now to follow, take inspiration, create and share. I hope you join me on the upcoming ride. It promises to be fun!
