I just
flat out love to paint - and that is the message that
I'm trying to convey - to share my joy in a visual dance
with the viewer. It's really not all that complicated -
just joy. I'm very intrigued by the abstract patterns in
landscape that occur when man has either worked the land
or built on it. I twist and pull the shapes just a
little for the fun of it.

Jeff has the utmost respect and fondness
for art from other materials, however "nothing works
with light as glass does." That which can be seen out of
doors in California is a constant inspiration to get
into the studio and make something cool.

I have started to experiment using hardwoods to carve fish allowing for a more stylized version of my carvings. Living in the Pacific Northwest my attention will now be focused on the wild salmon of the area and hope to have a few of those completed shortly. I see beauty everywhere these days and my hope is to create a little bit of it as well. Learn

"Digital Art" often suggests hi-tech images with orbiting satellites and otherworld figures, but for me the lure is the ability to create more of a painterly feeling.
The user's manuals for my Macintosh and Adobe Photoshop were the introduction to a wonderful new world where visions weren't limited by film and darkroom. Ten years later I am still filled with excitement when creating a new vision. Learn

I used to think that 'paradise' was limited to just tropical places. I was much younger then... now the truth is, paradise is everywhere - all you have to do is look with your heart.
We as humans have created so much, but nothing compared to the creations of nature. Therefore, much of my work is dedicated to depicting the immense beauty of nature.

I began painting wine when my sister and husband, Gail & Rob LaRoque returned from France with a bottle of Château LaRoque wine. I took that painting to my next show and got a commission for another and then another. The more I painted the more I begin to see new qualities within each wine that I needed to express. Learn

Inspiration for my quiltart is drawn from my love of the ever-changing hills that make up our coastal and inland landscape, and from the ravens that mirror and mock this region’s boisterous, passionate, and sometimes-crazy human residents. Watching ravens, I see how they live and weave their lives among us.

As an artist working primarily in glass, I reinterpret ideas and images, symbols and stories through images, shapes, words, texture and color. My background in the commercial world makes me hyper-aware of the images and messages that we receive — as well as send — constantly throughout each day.

for example, the Cave Art Series (work inspired by my
interest in prehistoric cave art), the New Mexico Church

of New Mexico church structures), and the Pez Head Suite
(a group of prints combining modern and ancient work).

usually work on an intimate scale creating objects that
are best appreciated in the hand. The warmth and beauty
of the wood needs to compliment the tactile feels of
the vessel. I am drawn to the quietness and simplicity
of the hollow vessel. Learn
