Being a life-long
resident of Massachusetts, I have lived the past 45 years in
Plymouth, MA. There I raised 3 sons while working as chiropractic
assistant and massage therapist.
After becoming interested in painting through a decorative
painting class, I quickly moved on to watercolors, then oils. Taking a class
when I could and painting every day has helped me to keep moving forward with
my painting. Decorative painting has greatly influenced the style of realism
found in my still life paintings. My
work is highly detailed while rendering texture, light and color.
I am often inspired by
family heirlooms and by my personal collections that I have searched out at
antique shops and local yard sales. I am currently working on a series of still
life oil paintings featuring these cherished possessions.
My love of flowers started
at 8 years of age with a 4-H garden. The fascination of their fleeting
beauty has led me to try to capture in my floral paintings the quickly changing joy
of God's creation.
I enjoy painting outside, usually around historical
Plymouth. Many of these Plymouth Scenes
are available in prints and can be viewed on my website.
Having been one of the original
founders of The Plymouth Center for the Arts, I volunteered as a board member for
over 10 years, while being chairman of the gallery committee there. I am also an active member of the North River
Art Assoc., Duxbury Art Assoc, Marion Art Assoc., a juried artist at the Cape
Cod Art Assoc., and vice president of The Bourne-Wareham Art Assoc.,
I teach oil painting at The
Plymouth Center for the Arts and am available for demos and workshops. My paintings are held in many private
collections throughout the United States, and Europe.
"Walking with Jesus" is
based on biblical principals and the beauty of His Creation. It is a
combination of poetry by my husband, David, and my artwork. If you
