My Story

A heritage of Pennsylvania Dutch and American Indian combine to create sense of history and a deep instinctive understanding of the land and the natural environment. This translates to a love that can be seen in the artist's work, be it in oils, watercolor, pen and ink illustrations or clay. All senses are involved in the creation and the finished piece. Whatever medium used, it must reflect and enhance the nature of the each piece to capture the soul, personality and innate spark of the subject matter.
