Moments In Time
My goal is to express on canvas the beauty that I see everyday and the joy I feel when painting. It seems I’m always striving to paint the invisible…those memorable and toughing “Moments in Time” that each of us carries in our heart.
My sister Annie, a professional artist in Vero Beach, FL, gave me my first painting lesson on Aug. 20, 2000 and encouraged me to begin this journey. A year later I began painting full time at the Yellow Barn Studio with Walt Bartman. His teaching opened for me a whole new world of light and color and seeing things once again for the first time.
Since then, studying with Cedric and Joanette Egeli, John Ebersberger (all students of Henry Hensche, founder of the Cape Cod School) and Don Shali (last apprentice to Russian Impressionist Sergi Bongart) has given me a broader knowledge and understanding of color theory and it’s application.
I appreciate the encouragement of my family, my friends and my patrons. I am especially thankful for my husband Jeff who remains my most enthusiastic supporter and cheerleader.
I live in Arnold Maryland and enjoy both plein air and studio painting. I love painting “relationships” between children and families, beach scenes, and anything to do with nature, flowers, sand and water.
Gallery 1683 represents me and is located at 151 Main St., Annapolis, MD 410-280-2140. Please visit Gallery 1683 to view my other paintings.
