I am an oil painter. I have tried other mediums but always come back to paining in oils, the way of the old masters paint. Painting in oils gives me time to blend and paint in multiple layers, building and blending as I go. It is a slow process, but quite effective.

My art is inspired by nature. Whether working in my gardens, taking pictures of my flowers, walking my dog Maya, or just quietly observing, I am happiest when I am outdoors. When I can’t be outside, or when our long Central New York winter is looming, I reconnect with nature through painting watercolors, or weaving baskets from the organic materials I’ve gathered during the growing season. My painting and weaving remind me of the beauty of the world and that preserves my sense of well-being.

I am a non-traditional conceptual artist working in textile forms with social and communal roots that embody both individual style and communal creativity. I combine typically feminine folk art traditions like knitting and quilting with principles from my formal education in classification and information science to humanize clinical data and surface perspectives that have traditionally been reduced or erased.

My work, whatever the medium, is pretty much always, at it’s heart, Storytelling. My story, a story I heard, an idea expressed through storytelling–storytelling is one of the highest forms of communication, and humans have used this practice as long as we have been able to form words.

“Face to Face: Portraits from the Precipice” seeks to explore and acknowledge the diversity and richness of our upstate community through portraiture.
