   I love to paint roses at the end of day,  just before the last wisps of light disappear. Though color is lost,  the light-toned roses glow magically, and scent is at it's richest and most haunting.

 Gardens are my personal metaphor I will always paint them.
 
" Let us be grateful to people who make us happy: they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom" Marcel Proust

 The fluidity of landscape combines with delicacy of floral color and form in the garden, and creates a metaphor for safety, tranquility and spiritual growth.
