Recently retired after a career in the design/art production world. After serving for 15 years as the Director of Communications at our church in Springfield, Virginia, we now live in Ashburn, Virginia. When I'm not painting or out with my camera, I can be found in the garden. My creative eye is drawn towards color and texture: my acrylic paintings can be described as an abstract look at impressionism. With my photography I seek to capture the subtle interplay of light, texture, and form. more
