She is an artist living in the magnificent Pacific Northwest, just south of Portland, Oregon.  She grew up in a small suburban town outside of Philadelphia and attended Moore College of Art, focusing on graphic design and commercial art.  Her children moved to the West Coast after their college was completed, and she and her husband followed!  After retirement, She was able to finally do what she really loved - creating art!

Over the years, She has narrowed down what really inspires her and has found that her education and work experiences have been what contributes to how her paintings have evolved along with the beauty of nature around her. Her primary medium is oil but she also like to incorporate collage elements into her paintings or create assemblages out of the funky, everyday found objects She has collected.
