Read more "THANK YOU!"I had a lot of fun painting this iris. Vincent is known for his many sunflower paintings, but when he moved to Saint-Remy to check himself into the asylum, we begin to see more irises and cypresses in his work.

Read more "Opposites Attract"I am so grateful to be included in the 15 Squared Art Show currently on view at The Barefoot Spa. The premise is to feature 15 local artists with 15 artworks each, but there’s a catch! Each artist must create artwork in four categories – anatomy, landscapes, the 1970’s and artist choice (no abstracts) – […]
