ARTIST'S STATEMENT

I enjoy exploring many different forms of media to express feelings in color, shape, & form. I have always loved making art, and every new medium has been a new chapter: drawing, painting, printmaking, ceramics, photography, computer aided graphics. I am still exploring but paint mostly in acrylics these days, with a reverance for nature. The natural beauty that surrounds us beckons me to document it because I am observing an ephemeral & miraculous sight that will look different tomorrow. Nature has always brought me solace & peace. I try to capture the essence of a place as I experience it, a moment in time, as if to freeze it. I love seeing light & shadows at play, and the challenge of bringing that into a painting. 

With all that is happening today: media inundation, political disconnects, dissonance, environmental noise (not to mention global warming and mankind’s aptitude for destruction), I take comfort in these places. So if I can derive a moment of meditative, peaceful reflection & pass that on to you, I have achieved my goal. There are several other styles I employ in my art-making world but these acrylic paintings reflect my most serious, contemplative side.

 

Watercolors/gouache + ink of well known city scenes become more playful. I sell reproductions of these to several stores.
 

The jazz/cat collages have a sense of whimsy where funky, abstract, bright colors become shapes of their own. 

 

For 25 years I worked in the Boston area as a graphic designer, doing both design & production. I worked on CD, book & magazine covers & interiors, educational & medical projects, travel material, newsletters, greeting cards, packaging and many other items for many different, eclectic clients. 

 

I currently sell cards & prints at 3 art/craft/gift shops in the Greater Boston area. Occasionally I show my larger work in galleries.
