"I was born in 1951, in Philadelphia. My sisters and brothers and I grew up in Birmingham,
Michigan. Our mother was a gifted watercolorist who provided us with good art supplies, for
which I will always thank her.
"I majored in English at the University of Michigan. I think it was my passion for literature and
raw love of art which led me to develop a narrative painting style. Over the years, my style has
evolved consistently, as I have evolved. Change and openness are essential to the creative
spirit. I can never adequately describe my art, as it defies easy categorization. Much of it has
reflected coastal New England life with an emphasis on the marine. All my time spent on the
water with my family has deeply affected my work.
"I never tire of probing into the past for inspiration. My love for the artless self-composition of
interacting figures and human body language has always lent a light-hearted humor to the
paintings. I feel a genuine affection for the people I invite into the paintings, people who are
simply part of the composition, going about their business unaware, as if in snapshots.
"Now, in midlife, I am returning more to landscape out of love for the beauty of the world
around me. The human presence is, of course, always implied at the very least. I desire to be
a strong unseen presence, involved in the scene before me. Still, never far from the
whimsical, I love to paint animals and objects and people. I am more interested in being
eclectic than in being easily categorized. I am no classical artist. I am a painter whose work is
her greatest source of well-being."
