MARCH 10, 2009<\/strong><\/p>\n

Greetings!<\/p>\n

March is Women’s History Month, and my “Women of Courage” series of paintings is receiving a lot of attention. \u00a0\\”Beyond Boundaries: Women of Courage\\”<\/a><\/p>\n

Concordia University Chicago has been featuring my artwork in their Ferguson Gallery venue. This solo exhibition has been on view since February 9th and continues until March 15th<\/strong>. If you missed the opening reception that was held February 15th, you still have a few days left to see the artwork. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Special Note: <\/strong>I will be giving an Artist’s Talk<\/strong> March 11th beginning at 4:00 PM. This event will take place within Ferguson Gallery, and you will have the opportunity to learn more about the “Beyond Boundaries:<\/strong> Women of Courage”<\/strong> paintings, the history of the series and how it has evolved.\u00a0<\/p>\n

MAY 2008<\/strong><\/p>\n

Welcome and thank you for visiting my site.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

For the past five years I have been\u00a0working on several visual art projects that\u00a0reflect my observations of\u00a0humanity and nature, representing\u00a0the journey of curiosity and the soul of discovery.\u00a0\u00a0It is a perception that each of us is unique in the universe- yet shape, form and color remind us that we are elements in nature.\u00a0It is a reminder that we are all connected.<\/p>\n

I am passionate about creating art that will\u00a0urge the viewer to reflect\u00a0on the subject matter. Perhaps my nature paintings will take you on an imaginary journey\u00a0or to a place you would like to visit. As an environmentalist, it is my hope that you will hold the beauty and wonder of nature\u00a0close to your heart.<\/p>\n

My still life paintings represent a “moment” and a delicious state of mind that creates balance with the world around us<\/p>\n

Please enjoy the recent paintings from the still life gallery…<\/p>\n\n \t\t\n\t\t\t\t
