I studied studio art and art history at Potsdam College. My style has changed over the years through different influences in my life and using various mediums.

Working with pastels and oils, I try to evoke a mood or sensation of what I see and am feeling when I paint. I have traveled often and many of my paintings have inspired me to create what I have felt at that time and place whether it be the people, the culture, the architecture, or movement found in a landscape.

I presently am a member of the Rochester Art Club, Genesee Valley Plein Air Painters, Pastel Painters Society of Cape Cod, and Vermont Pastel Society.
