New Year's Day Sledding

 

I have always loved to draw and paint. Living in the Wisconsin countryside is a constant inspiration to me. It seems everywhere I look I see a painting – the patterns of a fresh cut alfalfa field, hay bales on the horizon, popcorn clouds dancing in a pink sky. Color and pattern are important to me. I interpret onto the canvas the energy and colors I feel as I paint. As van Gogh said: “…real artists paint things not as they are, in a dry analytical way, but as they feel them.” I paint as I feel.
I have been an exhibiting artist for over 30 years, and have a BFA from the University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee. I am represented by several Wisconsin galleries including: Edgewood Orchard Galleries in Fish Creek, Grace Chosy Gallery in Madison, Moondeer Gallery in Boulder Junction, Lake Country Gallery in Pewaukee, Main Street Gallery and Pizazz Gallery in Cedarburg.
