I was born and raised in Vermont and now live with my husband in a house dating back to 1790. The neighbors are wonderful, the surroundings relaxing, and my flower gardens provide a respite from the world. I love the ocean and travel to paint Maine and Cape Cod. I attended Castleton State College and Art Student's League in New York City.
When I started to paint I chose watercolor.
Watercolor has a luminosity that glows with a life of its own. I find
sketching relaxing wherein painting is exciting as the piece unfolds itself.
Although the people in my artwork are often alone, I try to convey a peaceful solitude that everyone needs once in a while. I paint a picture of some place, some feeling, I want to be.
