This is an 8x10" painting I did of roses, which are not wild, but brought to Eastern Colorado by the homesteaders. Nearly every old place I know of has these flowers.

The Inspiration to create art is as unique a thing to the individual artist as his or her fingerprint. I never really set out to be an artist with a capital "A'. I grew up appreciating big skies, abundant wildlife, and a lifestyle which required me to be outdoors more than indoors.
My mother always painted so I guess I saw her making images and followed the lead. I received a whole lot of encouragement early on and that led to an addiction I just never could kick.
I saw a quote attributed to Picasso once that speaks for my desire to paint. "Art is my mistress, and when she calls I must answer."
