Welcome to my home away from home - my decorative painting website. I hope to inspire you.

Come in and browse trough my pattern packets. I especially love to paint flowers on large canvases, birds on small boxes, puppies and kittens, and sometimes a city or country scene. Check out my ‘Calla Lilies’ on black canvas, or my Chickadees, or my ‘Cat’s Eyes’ on an eyeglass box, or my Aussie puppies.

My book “A Tapestry of Tole Painting” has over 200 pages of information, ideas, guidelines and tips for the beginner to the advanced painter. A ‘how to’ book with information on the many different techniques, surfaces, mediums, brushes, and paints that the decorative painter uses. Also included is a tole painting ‘dictionary’. It is published in a unique style with a spiral binding for easy reading.

Have fun!
