Oil Painting has interested me since my youth--however many years passed before I began to pursue painting with a passion. Everywhere I go I see a "painting waiting to happen". Thus, I have taken hundreds of snap shots the world over--many finding their way to a canvas in my studio. I have attended classes and workshops in Ohio, West Virginia, Virginia, California, North Carolina and Arizona and have displayed my paintings in all those beautiful settings. Currently you can see my oil paintings in Otero Gallery in Tubac, Arizona. Since our son lives in France, I have had many opportunities to travel to that lovely country and drink in the beauty and charm and come home to paint to my "heart"s content". Last summer I had the joy of traveling to Italy on a painting vacation--the outcome has been many oil paintings of the picturesque countryside. Currently we are living in Green Valley, Arizona, where the opportunities for artistic expression are unlimited. Come visit "Oil Paintings by grace" often to view the new painings reflecting God's wonderous creation!
