About the Artist

                                      Residing in New York's Hudson River Valley, I love the freedom of being a full-time artist. Since I began my adventure with fabric collage in 1994, I have enjoyed creating vibrant landscape and flower collages. Later, I learned how to make beautiful floorcloths, table runners and placemats using acrylics, faux painting techniques, and collage. Sharing these techniques, I regulary lead workshops in these areas.

My educational background includes graphic design at Broward Community Collage in Ft. Lauderdale, FL and fine art at the University of Miami in Coral Gables, FL.

My artwork has been shown in numerous group exhibitions on the East Coast. Since 2008, three were solo shows including an exhibit at the Woodstock Artists Association in Woodstock, NY.

 

Recently my collage, "Wild Tulips 2", was chosen to appear in the 2010 calendar published by Cloth, Paper, Scissors magazine. Also, an article about me and my work was published in the November/December issue of Cloth, Paper, Scissors. a national artists'magazine. As a participant of the Free Art in New York project, a video about me and my work may be viewed online at Free Art In New York.  Click on "Meet the Artists."

I am a member of the Garrison Art Center, the Art Society of Kingston, the Association of Mixed Media Collage Artists and am on the board of the Cornwall Cultural Committee.


Blending abstract and decorative design, I create art that delights the eye and lifts the spirit.
