Picasso once said,
“It took me years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child.” As a former teacher, my students were playful and fearless in their approach. Their broad strokes and bright palettes were charged with energy and a joy to behold.
Now in my second career, I incorporate a creative energy and playfulness with line, shape and bold colors. The solitude of the pandemic gave me the opportunity to explore and surround myself with joyful still-life paintings using whimsical flowers, wine and food- some of my favorite things!
Working with children has allowed me to see the world through their lens, and my work reflects my positive outlook on a colorful world. It gives me much fulfillment to create and share these playful still life works which are true to my aesthetic.
