As an X-Ray technologist, I learned to see in black and white and shades of gray. I had to retrain my eyes and brain to see and think in color. Many “Paint by Numbers” kits in childhood, gave me an addiction to the smell of oil paint and linseed oil. When I realized that I could draw, I took many classes with local Connecticut Artists and did a lot of independent study. I did watercolors and stained glass at local craft fairs for several years. I joined the Art Guild of Middletown, CT, Studio 53/Arts and Crafts of Meriden, took classes and workshops and became active in the art world.

I taught oil painting classes for Senior Citizens in Middletown and Cromwell Ct for 12 years and taught at Salvation Army Adult Day Care while working part time as an Assistant Town Clerk in Middlefield, CT.

I’ve won numerous awards for my oils and a best in show “ for my first pastel! I am now an elected member of the Clinton Art Society, Middletown Art Society, Madison Art Society, was a core member of the Maple and Main Gallery in Chester, CT and a founding member of Clinton Art Gallery. I have been accepted in many Juried Shows. I have been part of Five Women Painting and now River Valley Artists group.

My paintings hang in homes throughout the United States, Canada and England. I recently sold two Oil Monotype Paintings to the new Davis Heart Vascular Center at Baystate Medical Center in Springfield, MA.

I started Plein Air painting with the Madison Art Society and enjoy it immensely. Lots of my new paintings are done outdoors. I recently went Mandelieu-La Napoule, France for in intensive outdoor painting workshop and painted by the canals of Venice, Italy, full of beauty and decay.
