I’m excited to announce that I will be returning to the Allentown Art Museum for an incredible evening of celebrating this amazing museum and all they do in support of the arts!
Join us for an evening of fine art, fine food, cocktails and music!
I hope to see YOU on Nov.8th & 9th!

The Process…a bit of time in the studio before the HUGE thunderstorms…making way!

My work currently available in downtown Milford NJ at the Rivertown Artisan Cooperative Shoppe on Bridge Street. The shop is closing next Sunday, so there’s no time to waste AND much of the inventory will be 20% off! ✨Art is to live with-it elevates the space it inhabits.✨

My newest Astroscape work
“Dancing Nebula” has been added to a new collection.
This oil painting was quite a creative journey.
Contemplating the vastness of deep space and the universe we inhabit has provided an extreme perspective that I find soothing and surprisingly grounding at the same time.

My works currently available at Rivertown Artisans Cooperative Shoppe in downtown Milford NJ! Such a beautifully curated shop filled with products lovingly created to enhance your day to day. Making the effort to support local small businesses and creatives helps to build a thriving community!

✨✨✨ART ALERT✨✨✨
“Dancing Nebula” the newest of my Astroscape series is off the easel!
This 24x24 oil certainly took me on a journey inspired by the knowledge that every moment of every day there are stars being born!
Light is the only true destroyer of darkness. Lean into the light.

Spent time in the studio today, communing with deep space…
A couple of details of the painting…perspective can change your sense of hope and wonder….stars are born in every moment.

I so enjoy watching my students develop their skills and paintings each week! It excites me to witness their journey into creativity in person!

Remember the smallest act of kindness can change the course of the world…don’t wait for the grand gesture to act.

Work in progress….the newest piece in my Astroscape series.
Dancing Nebula- next step-
adding stars….wish me luck!

You can find Big Bottom and Corkscrew for purchase at Exhibit B Gallery in Souderton
