After a career in costume design for film and television, she decided to pursue fine arts. She has studied the Art Students' League, the National Academy School of Fine Arts and the Art Barge. Her work has been exhibited the National Academy of Fine Arts, the Arsenal Gallery and PS1 in New York, at Guild Hall in East Hampton and Gallery Sitka in Newport, RI. Artist Statement: After many years of painting landscapes in oil, I began to explore abstraction as well as experimentation with acrylic paint, acrylic ink, mixed media and watercolor. This inquiry into new materials and forms led me to explore interconnected theses with each new series: the sea, dreams, energy, the cycle of life and death. Referencing Richard Diebenkorn, I am currently deconstructing my landscapes with layers of oil paint to recreate the colors and atmosphere of the eastern end of Long Island.
