MIXED MEDIA

IMAGINE. EXPLORE. CREATE.

I’m constantly exploring new ways to express the beauty that fills my world — from the mundane to the dramatic. I believe art should make the viewer pause and perhaps evoke a feeling of wonder...or look at something in a totally new way.

I paint landscapes, still lifes and people with a never-ending thrill of discovery. Since my move from Boston to Chapel Hill NC a few years ago, I’ve been enjoying painting local Carolina scenes featuring the always-changing skies and magnificent color-saturated scenery.

The sacred feminine shapes my creative vision. I have explored the female torso in sculpture, mixed media and paintings. My work ranges from realistic stone and bronze torsos and ‘sacred vessels’ to my whimsical and provocative mixed-media bustiers.  

My current work is the culmination of a lifetime of creativity.  I’ve had a long career in advertising and marketing, and have been an award-winning art director, graphic designer, author, illustrator and self-taught fiber artist. 

I now paint, sculpt and play with mixed media in my studio located in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.

My work is featured in select galleries and private collections. I welcome commissions.

 

SCULPTURE

PAINTINGS

With my recent painting “Blue Ridge High”, in my Chapel Hill NC studio.

These days it’s all about clouds for me! I try to capture the energy and emotion of skies from the mountains to the sea. For me, the sky-dance of luminous light, color and form is the inspiration and the challenge.
