I live on an island on the coast of Maine. So, once I started painting in 2002, the Maine coast became my muse. I like watching the light on the water as you move through the day. I am enchanted by gardens and mountains and woods - each only moments away.

For the past twenty three years I have owned a woman's clothing store and art gallery in Falmouth, Maine. I love having my own gallery and have sold the work of over a hundred artists during this time. Last spring I turned 75 and began thinking about retiring and having more time to paint. During these twenty plus years my art has evolved to not only include
Maine landscapes and architecture but also a newer exploration in to abstract representation of the subjects I love.

It is both exciting and emotional for my paintings to find their way into the collections of clients from the United States and Canada. One painting recently found a home in Europe. I have shipped paintings to California to NYC, from Maine to Florida. I never get over the joy of someone responding to my work.
