Artist Bio

About Me:

I have been painting for all of my adult life.  I love spending time in Boston, on Cape Cod and in Southern Florida.  Many of the paintings you see are places that I am so familiar with - they are the places that I belong.  My work is continually evolving.  For many years, I worked solely in watercolor and loved the loose fluidity of the paint and the challenge of the experience.  For the past several years, I have been working in oils, enjoying the texture and the richness of color.   My education has come through master artists and mentors.   By day, I am an administrator at a university.  I have worked in marketing and finance for many years.  By night and on weekends, I paint.   Painting is play - it is good for the soul.  Enjoy!
