I’ve been a practicing artist for over twenty years, over which time I have evolved tremendously as an artist, evident in my various bodies of work. Conceptually, my work has always been a direct response to life events, the people and relationships within my life, and my environmental and physical surroundings.
I grew up in Fairfield County, Connecticut within an extremely creative and artistic family, and spent much of my time drawing and observing my mother's colorist paintings that hung on the walls of our home. My personal upbringing along with what I think may be my natural wiring as a visual person, contribute to the fact that I feel compelled to paint and innately driven to dedicate my life to Art.
I received my MFA in painting from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, and BFA in painting and drawing from the University of New Hampshire, in addition to studying painting and art history at Studio Art Centers International, in Florence, Italy.
I'm now based in Western Massachusetts where I maintain my full-time studio and live with my family (a beautiful blended family of seven!) in Greenfield, MA.
I have actively exhibited my work throughout New England and beyond. My work has been featured at Fitchburg Art Museum, Green Mountain College, Kyoto Seika University in Japan, Emory University, Northern Arizona University Art Museum, and Rogue Space Chelsea, New York.
My original work is represented by Carrie Coleman Fine Art, Libby Silvia Artstyle, Mitchell Giddings Fine Arts and Boston Art.
