I have been a member of PVW since the early 1990's. It was the first juried watercolor organization I got into and the most significant in my development as an artist. I have learned so much from so many of our members who are exceptional artists and who are so generous with their time and talents, and made so many wonderful friendships along the way.

Since becoming a member of PVW, I have also become a signature member of AWS, NWS, BWS and DWS. I have taught watercolor to all ages, from small children to seniors, in public and private schools, in-person and online workshops, and I am thrilled when I can make a difference in an artist's development. I want my watercolors to look spontaneous and fresh even if they take a lot of planning. Saving my whites and lights is everything and I continue learning more and more ways to do that. I enjoy painting all subject matter and I welcome commissions!
