Artist Statement
For me, creating art is a source of joy, reflection and quiet magic. Rooted in a lifelong passion that began with childhood drawing lessons at my mother’s kitchen table, my creative process is deeply connected to nature and the places I experience - from my home state of Vermont to my travels across the US and abroad.
My work continues to evolve as I move beyond my past work in pastels and watercolors. Current work focuses on rich tactile exploration through oils, acrylics, cold wax, gel plate printing and mixed media. By building distinct layers of color, light, materials and texture, I seek to create expressive paintings that invite meaningful connection and spark the viewer’s own imagination.
