In her own words

I have been painting regional landscapes for over 20 years. I am attracted to contrasts in sky and ground. Iowa is unique in many ways and I never tire of the changing light, textured fields, and open spaces with the occasional farm structure, a sign of man's activities in a natural unbroken space.
