" I am entranced by the play of light and shadow on ordinary objects and familiar places. I paint in oils for their rich color and luminosity. I do collages to satisfy my need to play with shape, color and mood. I also love to play with odd found objects to create assemblages. I seem drawn to the everyday things and environments of home and hearth. I always work from my own photographs. "
