Seeking to capture the emotional and spiritual qualities of animals and their people.
~ Terry Flannery
People often comment on how "lucky" my animal companions are to have such a comfortable and spoiled life. In contrast, I feel that I am the lucky one. My animal friends inspire me daily with an example of peace, goodness, forgiveness, devotion, beauty and love. These wonderful qualities provide an impetus for many of my designs. The process of bringing to birth each piece of my artwork is a spiritual and emotional adventure. My hope is that those who choose to look at my paintings and drawings might be invited to embrace this soul searching mystery.
