Artist Bio and Statement

“Follow your bliss. If you do follow your bliss, you put yourself on a kind of track that has been there all the while waiting for you, and the life you ought to be living is the one you are living. "- Joseph Campbell

The journey to becoming an artist has been a long one. Like many creative people, I ended up doing what I love for work later in life. It feels like returning home after a long trip. And art is not only something that I do, but it's part of each and every day. I'm grateful for the opportunity to paint and create work for people of all ages, including children's book illustration. Art=my bliss!

I'm also a wife, mom, grandmother and dog mom to my rescue lab Skipper. I grew up in the Merrimack Valley area in Massachusetts and now call Amesbury, Massachusetts my home city.

I currently show my work at the following gallery:

A Pleasant Shoppe, LLC - 79 Congress Street, Portsmouth, NH 03801 Phone: 603-610-5510
