I am a self taught dabbler of the paint brush. It all started back in grade school experimenting with acrylics, oils, sketching and sculpting which eventually lead to watercolor. Taking the occasional course from professional artists has also furthered my knowledge and optimism about ART.

I have always found nature to be my greatest inspiration and motivator. I paint in a realistic style using photos I have taken for reference. Bold and colorful describes my watercolors. Watercolor is an intriguing and powerful medium. I am only just beginning to realize what it can do. Mother Nature gives us water but water alone decides what it wants to do.

I will continue to experiment with techniques, application, pigment activity and marvel at how water interacts with these processes to create a wonderful surprise.

I am offering a number of original watercolor paintings in limited edition Giclee prints. Each print is signed by myself and numbered 1 through 50. They are available unframed. Unframed prints have been supported by backerboard and place in a sealed, acid free clear plastic envelope for protection. Giclee’s are printed on heavy duty paper or true watercolor paper.

Giclee (pronounced zhee-clay) is the process of making fine art prints from an original. Pioneered since the early 1990’s, the Giclee process has set new standards in the reproduction art business. Done one at a time using a very special press, the digital images are literally sprayed onto high quality artist’s canvas effectively creating a 1,700 dpi image of incredible clarity and quality. The print is then treated with ultraviolet light inhibitors and a protective finish to ensure long life and vibrant colors. The advantage of a Giclee print is that it is more feasible to the consumer than the ‘original’. It is recommended that you treat your Giclee print as you would an original watercolor painting. It should be protected from humidity and displayed away from direct sunlight.
