Celebrating My Love of Landscape in Watercolor and Mixed Media
My
paintings are about a sense of place, the contrast of land against water,
the lights and darks, the constantly changing drama of the sky. I visit marshes
and shore from southern Massachusetts and Rhode Island to coastal Maine and
Canada as well as places closer to home, such as the Arnold Arboretum, with
its unique patterns of color and design.
I
do many sketches and watercolors on site and then, in my studio,
distill what I have seen into my own interpretations. I want to
convey my experience of the places I visit.
My "partitioned landscapes" came about after I returned from a trip
to Canada with a notebook filled with sketches. I decided to combine different
scenes into a single painting, creating a "journey" for myself and
the observer.
Since
1992, I have been teaching watercolor classes, a rewarding and challenging
adventure. My work has been exhibited in many galleries in New England over
the past twenty-five years. It is included in many corporate and private collections,
among them, The Federal Reserve Bank, Fidelity Investments, and NYNEX.
