I am inspired by the Impressionists, especially Monet, Degas, and Cassatt.  They painted with feeling and expression . . . something I strive for in my work.  I love to paint - everything from landscapes, portraits, florals, still life, contemporary, animals, and more.  Acrylic is my favorite medium, but I also use watercolor, pastel, colored pencil, graphite, and inks.
