The Story

Step inside, dear weary one
Where songs and stories weave.
Eat your fill and once your done
You still don’t have to leave.

Smoke your pipe and And rest awhile
Beside a cheery fire.
Then savor second breakfast
In happy hobbit style.

“It is a dangerous business, Frodo, going out of your door. You step into the road, and if you don’t keep your feet, there’s no knowing where you might be swept off to…” ~ Bilbo from The Fellowship of the Ring, by J.R.R Tolkien

My Artwork

All of my art originates from the stories I write. I see my “story paintings” as windows that provide just enough to start the observer down the path, but leave a little mystery to ignite their imagination. I believe that artwork that reflects goodness and truth can bring light into people’s lives, encouraging them and giving them hope.

Shipping Information

Original paintings are carefully prepared for shipping. My shipping process includes: 1) Covering the art surface with glassine paper, 2) Covering front and back of art with a layer of cardboard, 3) Wrapping a thick layer of bubble wrap, and then 4) Inserting the wrapped art into a heavy-weight cardboard box. If you would like to purchase my work and are OUTSIDE THE U.S.—please contact me directly and I can provide a shipping estimate and then an invoice.
