I discovered the southern Appalachians while hiking on the Appalachian Trail with my husband in 1990. It was a life changing experience. Within the year we sold what we no longer needed, left our careers, and moved to Damascus. My work in glass is inspired by the natural beauty and cultural heritage of our mountains, and reflects my love of color and play of light. I welcome your visit to my garden and home workshop.

The farms, fields, trees, mountains, and skies of Southwest Virginia and East Tennessee rendered in fluid, moving, transparent watercolor are what make up my landscape paintings. A lifetime of watching the ever-changing passage of time and light over the hills and mountains of my native land has given me a feel for the countryside. I use shape and color to convey on to paper the emotions I feel for the place where I grew up. Many trips to Europe with my husband Tedd and students from Virginia Intermont College gave a love and feel for painting the city.
