Golden Lines and Silver Liningscame to fruition when I started giving titles and narratives to my work. I found that the titles were as special as the scribbles and markings I had made on paper. My love of books, quotes, spirituality and following your intuition sparked the creation of designs with “words and themes to live by”. My illustrations and images are inspired by the land & sea, decorative and ornamental design, figurative subjects and all things patriotic — these are strong influences in my work. My style leans classic but not fussy; timeless yet simple. I am often inspired while I am antiquing, visiting museums, gardens, flower shops or in nature. I love fine papers, printing techniques, engravings, watermarks, antique monograms and typography along with beautiful fabrics, furnishings and especially “mother earth”. I strive for a marriage of my painting and graphic design skills; each original is painted with gouache, watercolors or shimmery metallic.
