She continues to paint both the central Florida landscape and the beautiful coastal communities.

She considers herself a contemporary post-impressionist. Depicting the surrounding areas in oil on canvas has become her obsession and joy. She strives to depict movement and emotion through brilliant, vibrant colors and to convey a sense of mystery and illusion through her technique and point of view.

"I paint to express myself and to share my perspective of the beauty I see. I want to celebrate the beauty in everyday scenes that our busy lives might overlook."
