Portfolio of Works

A smile, a glance, a gesture, a mood. We read an expression and relate to a look. We weave a story, respond to a presence, and sometimes we might even find ourselves falling in love!

To gaze into the eyes of a fellow sentient being is to consider our relationship to it. It seems we can sense its awareness on a level far deeper, in a language much older, and far more subtle, than words.

The delicate curl at the edge of a leaf, dappled sunlight on ripening grapes, color that evokes the warmth of sunshine, and the intricate steps of flower blossom ballet. A sampling of visual delights offered freely by nature to those who pause to take notice. 

A moment of presence in an outdoor locale that touches the senses on many levels, while fresh air works its healing magic and memory whispers “Stay a while.”

Our pets are very special members of the family, be they kitties, dogs, even an iguana! Pet portraits make wonderful gifts. Use the Contact tab to commission a family heirloom!

Treasured toys, beat-up boots, a mariner’s memory, a Storyteller’s drum. Subjects inspiring Still Life, as they appear in real life.
