I am a mid-career artist (I hope!) living and working in York, PA. Having made up my mind in first grade to become an artist, I received a BFA from Kutztown University in an age when conceptualism was touted and drawing the figure was the exception. Never one to run with the crowd, I embraced figure drawing and drawing in general as an avenue of learning. It wasn’t until my 40’s that painting moved to the forefront of my art expression. Now in my 60’s challenges in creativity are important to me. They may come from an unusual commission or from trying new materials. I like to shake things up.

In painting I enjoy working on large canvases using a variety of applications. Landscapes in series and diptych or triptych form are especially enticing to me.

Using alcohol inks has fired up my imagination. They can be as controlled or loose as an artist wishes with endless possibilities in application. I am pursuing projects using multiple layers of glass  with the inks in collaboration with a glass lamination business.

Her work as been displayed in Togo, Africa as part of the Art in the Embassies Program. Being part of the program led to both a White House and State Department invitation to celebrate the 40th Anniversary.  She works out of OMG STUDIOS in downtown York.
