Waterways Project Statement 

I am a  landscape artist whose passion is painting Chicago area waterways. In April of 2007, I  began the Waterways Project  as a way to  follow the lives and courses of the areas rivers, streams and lakes.   Working plein-air and in my studio using mixed media, I work to express my strong visual and emotional connection to the  wild spaces hidden in our urban landscape.  My husband and I can be found most often canoeing area waterways in our battered old canoe "The Leaky Cauldron".
