Three Sisters

Three Sisters was painted en plein air during a Jacksonville Arboretum artist event and found its new home that same day, right off the easel. The title comes from the three trees that anchor the scene, standing together along the water. Created in soft pastel over watercolor, it captures a view I know especially well because I live very close to the Arboretum. I've watched the landscape around these three trees evolve over the years as the Arboretum has grown, making this painting a little snapshot in time of a familiar view I've always loved.

Secret Enchanted Swimming Spot

Growing up in a very dysfunctional family, as a child, I created an imaginary island named Maravita. It was my happy place. I wrote poems and painted pictures and escaped to it whenever I needed peace. I still use memories of my enchanted island in many of my paintings today. This was my favorite swimming spot.

Jacksonville Vision

My vision for a mural that represents Jacksonville comes from the same spirit as the canvas piece I donated to Jacksonville Equality last year. It celebrates our city's identity through its iconic river skyline and the vibrant plants and animals native to Florida. While I care deeply about this visual story, which captures the balance between our urban growth and our ecological background, I am nearly 78 years old. I do not want to take on the physical challenges of painting a large mural myself. Instead, I envision Mary Joan Hinson (an extremely talented muralist) bringing this idea to life in a large public installation. This way, we can make sure the beauty and diversity of our community is preserved and highlighted for everyone to enjoy on a larger scale.

Great Egret

The elegant white bird stands in contrast to the grey, aging wood and the surrounding grasses and trees. This work is based upon several photo references from the north part of Saint Augustine. The property where I was living had a pond in a quiet wooded area with a constant show of wildlife and a variety of birds: Egret, Heron, Wood Stork, Curlews, Kingfisher, Hawks, Eagles, Owls, and more. Nature is the greatest inspiration. I plan to continue creating more landscape and wildlife paintings.

Sister's View on Charlotte Street

This painting started as a part of a Plein Air paint out in April 2026 and spent some time in the studio to refine and add detail. The title is derived from the Saint Augustine, Charlotte Street location and dedicated to my late aunt, Sister Marie Therese, SSJ, who lived and worked for many years with this view across the street from the convent.
