Watercolor

I have been painting off and on all my life. But the demands of family life intervened and I painted irregularly until my  retirement in 1996. My passion is the dramatic light and  fascinating  patterns and designs in the world around me, and I strive to bring these into my watercolors. I am often in Italy, where I  lived  for several years, and many of  my paintings reflect the subtle colors of  that country. Much of the inspiration   for my work comes  from the dramatic Driftless area below LaCrosse where I now live, the mighty  Mississippi River nearby,  and my seven grandchildren. I have put together five children’s art exhibitions, and  their work which is often so  free and colorful has suggested some new  goals for me.
