My undergraduate studies in art were at Marietta College, Marietta, Ohio. I obtained a Masters in Integrated Arts from Lesley University, Cambridge, Mass. I am a member of Circling the Square Press in Gardiner, Maine and A.R.R.T.! (Artists Rapid Response Team). I maintain studio residences in Readfield, and Brunswick, Maine.

Color, pattern, light, and movement are found in my work. I am drawn to contrast and juxtaposition – the presence of fragility and strength. Water wearing down the hardness of rock, moss clinging to untenable surfaces, the abandoned and forgotten, growth despite adversity.
Present are layered elements of time in what has come before, vestigial traces of history portraying past evidence in the present. I look to the sublime in the sometimes over-looked ordinary.
