My love of flowers and gardening influenced my interest in pressing the flowers and leaves that nature provides. They are called "mother nature's paints," and they  provide a rainbow of colors. The textures and shapes of the foliage once they are pressed dictates what form the paintings will develop into. My designs vary from landscapes, leaf collage,  floral designs to flower people.                

The art of pressed flower painting begins with flowers from my garden and wildflowers grown on my property. Once the foliage is pressed and dried, the creation begins. Here the magic reigns as the color,  textures and shapes of the foliage are transformed into paintings to be enjoyed year-round.

Original paintings and matted prints are available at my studio.
