Art is my life. I am self-taught though I have had many mentors and teachers along the way. My mother and grandmother were both accomplished artists in their own right, painting landscapes, recording their life and times as I am. As a child, I was familiar with the artists that came before me, their brush strokes and ideals. I spent happy hours in the Baltimore museums with my family talking composition and palette colors. I am known for my vibrant cityscapes in my hometown of Baltimore, Maryland. Over the years my paintings have been collected and enjoyed throughout the country. My work definitely shows my love for the impressionist style and for nature. My recent cityscapes are punctuated with a view from trees…often from inside a city park looking outward to row houses. Other recent paintings have come from a dream… concentrating on fantasy women…mermaids, fairies, and angel folk… I am doing the work that makes me smile.
