My Artwork explores feelings of connection with nature, spirituality and energy.  Much of my subject matter consists of Aspen or Birch tree forests and of animals painted in an expressionistic way.  Painting these images help me to explore determination, overcoming fears, love and new beginnings.  When I am in nature I feel totally present.  I am not distracted by everything else going on in my life and I feel more clarity.  When I Paint I to try recreate that feeling.

I am a Registered Art Therapist and Licensed Mental Health Counselor.  I have a private practice where I work with adolescents and adults.
