September 1st Already
"Clarino" is the featured painting for the month of September. Because I paint MUSIC, everyone at shows asks me if I play an instrument. Growing up I took piano and clarinet for 5 years and Mr. Fairlee's Summer Class for flute. Now I paint music. I have to say I kinda...
“Summer Nights”
I painted this one with the intent of including the new backyard tree, a pink Crape Myrtle. I named the tree after a Dave Matthews song, The Dreaming Tree. I placed a rock at its base that says Dream (a gift from rock sculptor T Barny & Melinda). Included in the...
July 1st “She Rocks”
Turn your calendars to July. One of my first trips to New York, I climbed all those stairs up to the crown and looked out one of those little windows. Since 911, you can no longer climb up there. I feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to do so. I have many...
“Front Row Seat”
What is your favorite beach? Which one has your favorite memories? For me, I would say Wages Creek outside of Fort Bragg, Bodega Bay and Pismo Beach. Favorite memories...definitely Wages Creek! We went there every summer growing up when the Valley got too hot. This...

Spooky Halloween
I first learned to drive the tractor then Daddy taught me how to drive "Roger Dodger". My brother, Bryan, had "Roger Dodger" next. One day he was bringing me home from school on the back road. He punched it and we jumped the canal dip. I could smell gas so I sprinted...
