Description

Bisset Park is an impasto oil painting of a particular spot on the New River at Bisset Park. I have walked by this spot many times over the years. I like the way the branches of this submerged tree make a network of complicated textures and colors reflected in the water.

The paint on this piece was applied in many layers and the surface is varied according to the visible brushwork which adds expression and energy to the scene. The colors are mostly many shades of green for a very peaceful atmosphere. The painting is in a silver colored metal frame.

My paintings have been seen throughout the United States in national, international, and group shows. I have won numerous awards, including awards from Dorothy Gillespie, May Stevens, Frank Webb, and Daniel Greene. My paintings were in two group shows on Broadway and my biography is included in The Original Marquis Who's Who in America.

I taught in the Art Department of Radford University for a twenty years as Assistant professor. I taught Art Appreciation, Drawing, Oil Painting, Watercolor painting, Foundations, and served as Gallery Director for one year.I received many compliments on my course curriculum.

I enjoyed working with Art and Design students. My Art Appreciation course was hands-on and Oftentimes I had students that were not enrolled ask me if they could sit in for a class. I have fond memories of those guest students! What a great compliment for me!

My best-selling print, "Reaching Out", was selected from over three million works of art on Fine Art America to be on the set of The Mindy Project and I appeared with my artwork on The Hour of Joy on FoxTV out of Roanoke on March 10th 2013.

I live to paint and it is important to me to find homes for all of my creations. I have originals and prints in thirty-two states, Canada, England,Germany, Russia, Switzerland, India, and Australia.

I also have paintings in the private collection of famous actress, Morgan Fairchild.
