Painting has become my way of moving through the world, expressing and responding to what I see and feel. It is my interpretation, using color, stroke, and line, to evoke the mood I am receiving from the subject. Whether a person, a landscape, or a still life, I want to recreate what I am seeing and feeling. EducationStudied with Caleb Stone, Guy Corriero, Dean Keller, Ronald Sher, Mary Beth MacKenzie, Dan Gheno, Daniel Green, Don Stone, and Ronald Frontin.The Art Student League, 1999, 2006, 2007, Lyme Academy, 1995-1998, Rhode Island College, 1989-1994, MA in Education, Lesley College, 1979-1981, MS in Art Therapy, University of Rhode Island, 1972-1976, BA in Psychology. AffiliationsMembers of the Art Student League, NYC, The Farnsworth Museum, Rockland, ME, Portland Museum of Art Shows“Painting Monhegan,” July 2018, Camden Falls Gallery, Camden ME“Monhegan,” Roux and Cyr Gallery, April, 2016“Castaways,” May, 2015, Island Institute, Rockland, ME“Monhegan on the Mainland,” 2014 Camden Fall Gallery, Camden ME PressDowneast Magazine, 2008, The Boston Globe, 2010, PBS film, “Women of Monhegan” 2013, ABC television series in Boston, “The Chronicle,” 2017.
