BIOGRAPHY
ARTIST STATEMENT
“Capturing emotion through light and shadows, colors and shapes, thought and instinct….. this is art for me. My intention is to convey the energy of the moment into an experience for everyone.
Born in Peterborough, New Hampshire, I have always lived in New England. The constant change and beauty of the shifting seasons inspires me.
I am grateful for the support and love of my wonderful family and friends who have taught me to appreciate and look closely at nature, at life.”
