I live in a beautiful spot surrounded by nature…birds, tidal marshes, expansive skies.
In the studio, however, I focus on the built environment, exploring architectural details and the interplay of positive and negative spaces.
My paintings are acrylic on panel and focus primarily on abstracted views of the working waterfront and buildings of Portland.
My printmaking work is created using hand cut stencils with various combinations of collagraph, drypoint and monotype plates.
I’m originally from the south shore of Boston and settled in the Portland area shortly after graduating from Bates College. I have studied at Maine College of Art and Haystack Mountain School in Maine, Art New England Workshops in Vermont, Ballinglen Arts Foundation, Ireland and the Icelandic Printmaking Association in Reykjavik. I have been a member of Peregrine Press since 2005 and am also a member of the Boston Printmakers and the Monotype Guild of New England.
My work is in many private and public collections including the following:
Bates College Museum of Art
Colby College Museum of Art
Bowdoin College Museum of Art
New York Public Library Print Collection
Portland Museum of Art
Farnsworth Museum of Art
New Britain Museum of Art
