Artist Statement
 My paintings are visual interpretations of our human journey and our relationship with the natural world, most often I create narrative, abstract and figurative work in
oils, acrylics, mixed
media and watercolor using brushes, palette knife, hands, fingers
and sticks. I paint landscapes, animals, portraits, flowers, as well as semi-abstract imagery related to cultural stories and nature. Themes like journeys, stories, homecoming, identity and circles, metaphorical and actual, are favorites of mine in paintings. My work as an artist
supports our efforts to be kind, respectful and gracious in the circle
of life. Please drop an email to me personally if you have questions or to inquire about purchasing a painting.

Bio
 Home is Saint
Paul, Minnesota, between prairie and woodlands where
the Mississippi and Minnesota rivers come together, where I live
with my husband Richard Watson. I was born in South
Australia in 1953, then lived in London, England for 12 years and moved
to the US in 1979. What matured into my passion for painting began as a passion for making pictures as a child. I'm mostly self-taught but studied with two master
artists over a period of time who were good friends and generous mentors. In addition to painting I also work with individuals and small groups as a creativity and meaning coach, read more at the Circle Pathways website.
