WHERE DREAMS ARE MADE

9X12 Oil On Canvas

LO0OKING OR SEEING

Oil on Linen 18x18 I am attracted these days by the emotions of women. What they wonder about, what are their hopes and dreams, their longings? This woman, as she looks out the window, what is she seeing? "It's not merely what you look upon, but what you see"

THE OVERLOOK

Behind our home we lost in the fires was an area we called THE OVERLOOK. It looked beyond the trees, over the Colorado River, and into a meadow. It was beautiful and we loved it. The trees are gone now but the view remains in our heart.
