Visual Art – Orange County

I am a self-taught artist in Orange County, with a new-found desire to reach a wider audience with my hand-painted furniture for children and adults. That\'s a lot of hyphenates, isn\'t it? Oh well. I\'ve been painting and experimenting for over 20 years, but have only recently truly found my voice and my vision, taking my one-of-a-kind designs and wrapping them around a chair, a stool, a table--bending reality with whimsy and a whole lot of imagination. Painting on a 3-dimensional \"canvas\" challenges me to create a scene, tell a story, and adapt it to the shapes and planes of the piece in a way that both makes sense, and is entirely improbable. I want my pieces to be personal, functional, whimsical, and beautiful. Useable art. That\'s my thing.
