About Me

I love to paint and I hope that joy and energy flows throughout my work. Interpreting light, shadows, and mood fascinate me.  I like to have fun with pigment and allow watercolors to interact on paper, to splatter and to drip. The fluidity of watercolor inspires me to allow my paintings to be alive with discoveries.  Without getting caught up in too many details, I like to work at an angle to allow pigment to flow and mingle. A looser, more impressionistic quality is often present with a variety of soft and hard edges. To encourage the viewer's imagination to interact with the art, some things are intentionally a little "lost", while other identifiable images remain.

I am a lifelong painter who began in oils. The work of Nan White, a local artist from North Conway, NH. inspired me to begin my watercolor journey. From 2007-2015 I enjoyed many opportunities to exhibit watercolors in solo and group exhibitions throughout Mt. Washington Valley and in Bridgton, ME. I enjoyed being a part of Gallery 302 in Bridgton Maine from 2008-2015. 

I currently reside in Wiscasset, Maine, where my husband and I enjoy the tranquility of four seasons on Chewonki Creek.  I also spend time painting at our family camp on Lake Wesserunsett in Madison, ME. Maine's coast, wetlands, lakes, mountains, and fields parade ongoing theatrical scenes. The unfolding drama begs interpretation through color and design.

My work is exhibited at Pemaquid Art Gallery in New Harbor, ME. near Pemaquid Lighthouse.
