Artwork location: United States
This oil painting is of a cold and wintry morning as the sun began to rise. That morning the hoar frost glistened and sparkled through the sun rays. Cold and beautiful. This painting is done on oil primed linen mounted to a cradled board. Size is 18 x 24 x1.5 inches. The sides are painted white and the back wired so that it is ready to hang.

Presentation
Art is a way of expressing my inner feelings and spirit. I look for subjects that move and connect with me both visually and emotionally with the hope of translating the ordinary into a moving experience for the viewer. By using a pastel stick or a brush loaded with oil paint, I design and create two-dimensional paintings that are intimate and emotional.
Education:
I am a Signature Member of the American Women Artists. I have taken art classes in college and from many master artists. Learning is a never ending passion.
Workshops taken in recent years include those by Marc Hanson, Mary Pettis, Kami Mendick Polzin, Scott Lloyd Anderson, Albert Handell, Deborah Parish, Debora Stewart to name a few.
