A NYC native, I’ve lived in Gainesville since 1997. I Studied painting at the Philadelphia College of Art, Pratt Institute, and the Art students League, and taught painting in Gainesville for 20 years. I have been a member of the Artisans’ Guild since 1997.

Drawing on my experience as a Plein Air painter, gardener, and outdoor enthusiast my work focuses largely on landscape imagery. My recent work is more abstract and less site-specific. I work most often in the studio these days creating my images from memories, dreams, and intuition. While my paintings continue to be inspired by the natural beauty of the world, in my painting process I am most concerned with design elements, surface textures and pattern. I use mixed water media in layering and subtractive techniques, on prepared papers and canvas.
