All of my life, art has been playing in the background and most of the fuel for my personal progress has been my proximity to the water. Along with my painting practice, my creative life has involved interior design, owning a store and painting large murals. Having taught sailing, I enjoy having the freedom to explore painting sailboats where wind and water appear to collide as that is sometimes the reality of the chaos of a race. I feel that the familiar forms I’m discovering are becoming refined over time. As a nod to my store experience, I’m also having fun exploring the ins and outs of the revered little black dress with my LBD series. I value my long time membership in the AAN and how it has strengthened my ties to Nantucket and my world of art.
