Our Pomeranian Samson has such bright animated eyes.

He is an affectionate little dog who likes to snuggle.

A gift for Chris, a portrait of her precious little "Pixie Lane".

Our Samantha relaxes in one of her typical cat poses.

Repose is one of two featured paintings in the lobby of the Bank of Inverness, November 9 - December 14, 2007.

My inspiration for Inca Gold comes from photos that I took during a visit to Peru many years ago. These llamas were seen outside the city of Cuzco.

The Alpaca Show is held the last weekend of January at the nearby Ocala Equestrian Center.  I've taken so many photos for reference and finally did this watercolor with a touch of humor. Alpacas are herd animals, intensely social, and the sound of their quiet chatter fills the air around the stables; no doubt they share a bit of gossip now and then.

This painting was voted by the Citrus Watercolor Club as Painting of the month for April 2006, and was honored to be on display at SunTrust Bank in Crystal River May -September 2006. 

Our cat Samantha rules our household. Here she holds court in a regal pose.

At the January meeting of the Citrus Watercolor Club in Inverness this painting was selected for exhibit at SunTrust Bank in Crystal River 

January 12- February 12, 2004.

Our daughter Chris loves animals and now has five horses. Kassie is a very gentle horse that Chris enjoys riding in beautiful northern Michigan.

The background for this piece was a wet-on-wet wash of primaries. Whites were preserved using Winsor & Newton miskit.
