"Signing up with Nancy Johnson's watercolor classes shortly after moving to Carmel in 1965 was an exciting time for me."


"I had attended the California College of Arts and Crafts and had painted mostly in oils. I found watercolor to be my medium. I loved the way the colors flow on wet paper and the luminous quality that could be achieved."


"I am not interested in realism in my paintings. My goal is to capture the emotion I felt when I first observed the subject. Most of my paintings have evolved from my study and love of nature."
