About

Many of my paintings move from abstract to interpreted realism. All my work celebrates color and movement. Using a wide variety of palettes, I construct joyous, dynamic paintings and always experiment with explosive forms of color. I enjoy working on larger canvases using different types of tools.

I experience painting as a meditative process where materials lead the way. I love the serenity I feel inside while painting. My ideas originate from the unconscious and my inspiration lies in the colors themselves. My hope is that viewers will experience joy when looking at my paintings. 

My  paintings have been featured in galleries and cultural centers including the Dorsky Museum in New Paltz, New York; the Steinberg Museum in LI, New York; the IMAGO Gallery in Warren, Rhode Island; Medford Arts in Medford, New Jersey; and the Gallery @ Paragon in Phoenixville, Pennsylvania. In New York City my work has been exhibited at numerous venues, including the Pictor Gallery, Pleiades Gallery, Ceres Gallery, Taller Boricua, P.S. 109, Blue Mountain Gallery, Carter Burden Gallery; and the Greenpoint Gallery. 

In addition, my work is in public and corporate collections including those of the Justice Center of Southeast Massachusetts in Brockton; Tri-Valley Transit in Middlebury, Vermont; the North Suffolk Mental Health Association in Chelsea, MA; and Eliot Community Human Services in Lynn, Massachusetts. 

I taught painting to seniors as part of a CAC grant and to seniors at Covello/Carter Burden Network and the YM/WHA in Manhattan. I am an active member of the New York Artists Circle, the Northern Manhattan Arts Alliance, and, the New York Society of Women Artists.
