About Paula
Nature is a constant inspiration.
Forests, fields, rivers, seas, sky and all the creatures living there, nature is a constant inspiration. My goal is to create artwork that connects people to the natural world and the magic and wonder of the ecosystems of the planet Earth.
I try to capture moments and moods. I love the twilight times, dawn & dusk, full of shifting color, light and shadow.
I exhibit and sell my work and also accept commissions. Commissioned artwork is a collaborative process and a rewarding way to use my skills to help others communicate, connect, and be more fully present to the joys of the earth.
