Statement

Land and space inform my work; the natural world be seen and experienced as vivid and beautiful, and can inspire us in ways we don’t understand. My work has two significant sources: the physical experience of landscape, and the contemplative practice of meditation. Born in New York, I studied painting at University of the Arts in Philadelphia, spending time at the Corcoran Gallery in Washington, and taking part in “Insomnia, Landscapes of the Night”at the National Museum of Women in the Arts. I paint because it allows communication, a new perspective, and a sense of place.
