I am an enthusiastic artist, designer, photographer. I believe that the practice of “ART” is a total experience, involving body, mind, and spirit. In this sense, the practice of painting, drawing and observing only enhances ones personal growth. With or without words, my passion for drawing and design create harmony. My work comes from experiencing the natural world around me, and then translating these visual and emotional perceptions into art. With every creation, there is a new discovery, a new challenge, a new solution. Every time I approach the blank white paper, I take a unique journey always unlike the last, and never like the next. It is what keeps me coming back to the passions of creating yet another.
I am currently working on a series of landscapes inspired by the hills, flora and extraordinary fauna of Costa Rica. (Artist Residencies 2005-2024)
The following is an excerpt from my art journal during my stay.
“I am entranced by the beauty of nature here in Costa Rica. It has changed the way I now look at all landscapes. I find myself weaving one image into another now; the wings of a butterfly become the texture in a mountain. I am allowing myself the freedom to deconstruct and then reconstruct.”
As an accomplished watercolorist, I live and maintain a studio in Warwick, Rhode Island, USA. My memory of being an artist, started as a little girl and I was compelled to create an artful life. As an adult, Rhode Island has been my constant source of inspiration with its picket fences, nature, the water’s edge and quaint streets. Traveling is yet another calling and I will always paint & sketch along the way.
