My work is about the rich abundance of our seashore. The birds are part of this amazing diversity, they show us something of what it is like to survive within an uncertain environment. I seek to draw attention to this precious habitat and to encourage action to take care of it. My work is a mixture of imagination, memory and above all feeling. When I return from the coast, I retain a sort of atmosphere of what I have seen. Perhaps it’s a solitary gull, perhaps it’s a flock of sanderling. Above all, it is freedom, the total wild freedom that these birds embody.

I am an artist and my heart sings and dances when I can share my vision of beauty with other people. I love to see how people blossom when they find they can create something beautiful and that they are proud of.
I love it when a painting comes together and other people like it, it’s all about making contact, like falling in love, it is finding that one is not alone, and I have the ability to share my deepest satisfaction with others.
It is a path with many stumbling blocks and often a very rugged climb, but it is all worth it.
