Welcome!
This year I am continuing to play with extremely thick oil paint, creating three-dimensional canvases that I can’t wait to share with you. With many layers and gallons of paint I can recreate the texture of birch and aspen bark and the movement of fall foliage, in addition to a new series of uplifting sunflower, poppy and floral fields and soothing water lily ponds flowing with light. The resulting paintings are rich in depth and texture, explode with color and energy, and evoke an emotional response, so as to raise one’s spirits and suggest childlike wonder. I love these sculptural oil paintings, and so far I have received wonderful reactions to these new pieces.

For the past few years, my husband, Scott Williams, and I have been leading Plein Air Painting and Photography Workshops in Europe. From medieval towns, cypress tree-lined roads and the sun-drenched splendor of Tuscany to the sights, sounds and passion of Venice, these unique workshops cater to painters, photographers, and those who just like to travel. Thanks to the success of these workshops, we are not only planning another Tuscan adventure for September 2012, but we will also be adding trips to Paris in May 2012 and to Cinque Terre & Lake Como, Italy in September. Previous workshops have sold out in as few as 3 weeks, so sign up today for the next adventure!
