Welcome to My Project!

I was born and raised in Florida. After many years of travel, attending plein air paint outs, I discovered that residencies are the best way to explore the natural world I love. Working for an extended period from seven to ten days really enhances my painting experience. I am lucky to have friends and collectors who make it possible to explore the exciting and interesting locations I love to paint. Supporters provide their unoccupied vacation homes or hotel lodging for my residencies throughout the year. I am always delighted to leave an original framed painting for them as my thanks for their generous gift. If you would like to sponsor a residency, I would love to hear from you.

My Bird Island Residency

Bird Island

Notes From My Residency Journal

I'll be off to Horseshoe Beach Saturday morning to start my adventure on Bird Island. Saturday is a big day for Horseshoe Beach. I'll attend the Horseshoe Spring Festival Parade and have some good seafood at the cafe before I get a boat ride over to Bird Island. I'll be dropped off for four days of painting and enjoying the island. I'll be picked up on Wednesday morning to go back to Horseshoe, pick up my car and head for Gainesville and my loft studio. 

This will be my third trip to Bird Island and I'm looking forward to many happy hours of painting, thanks to the Nelms family.
