Artist Statement:
As an artist, I choose to paint the beauty in the world. I receive inspiration through the observation of nature, particularly flowers. Flowers represent the cycle of life, expressing a symbolic language, such as love, joy, innocence, peace, resurrection and even death.
Every stroke of a floral painting energizes my mind and soothes my soul! “Zesty Zinnia” was painted with many transparent layers of watercolor, allowing the light to shine through.
