Info
I began my art studies at the Art Student's League in New
York City. Undergraduate studies were done at Pratt
Institute and Carnegie Mellon University. At the University
of Wisconsin, Madison, I earned a
Master's Degree in Painting. I taught art in public school systems, including
Bedford-Styvestant, N.Y.,
|
Framingham, MA., and Weston, MA.
The current direction of my art is an oil based mixed media
approach where printmaking and painting are combined. Each
piece is a combination of two or more processes. I like to
use each medium for what it does best, what is unique to it,
such as painting's spontaneity, monoprinting’s surprise
element, etching’s tonal quality, lithography’s repetitive
and linear nature, and oil stick for both its transparent
and opaque effects. Collage is often an important component.
Artist's Statement
Sometimes, the further away we get, the better we see,
and the closer
we get, |

|
| the better we understand. My pieces explore patterns of design
and color found in the natural world. My intention is to construct
pieces that describe visually a place and time, that convey the energy
and design of a particular moment. The emphasis is on both the
complexity of the parts and the simplicity of the whole. |
