About the
Artist
As a child, I would stare out car windows, planning on reproducing the
beauty of central NY when “I was an artist”. This took so much longer
than I ever would have expected.
Real life tends to hold off daydreams, so I have been actively involved
in art for only about sixteen years. During that time, I have written
several children’s books (unpublished), done watercolor and
silverpoint. I’ve painted furniture, fabric, and floor cloths. Now, I
tend to concentrate on acrylic painting.
My style isn’t genre-limited. The work ranges from collage gardens to
painted florals to anthropomorphic animals. Some abstract and
surrealistic touches also creep in. However, color is the identifying
feature of every piece that has come from my imagination.
My experience includes membership in the MAA, in the Eagle Eyes
(Manchester, NH) outdoor mural program, in the Cat Alley mural project,
and in the 2016 Parade of Eagles here on the Seacoast. For the past two
years, Deb Curtin and I have painted together as the ArtGypsies, in all
sorts of unusual spots, as well as art fairs. It’s a pleasure to
have work on display with The Provident Bank, and in other public
venues.
The Provident Bank’s Lobby for the Arts Program, celebrating its 19th
year, is an ongoing series of local art exhibits displayed at all The
Provident Bank branch lobbies. It receives no commission for artwork
sold, and pays all expenses associated with the exhibit. The Provident
Bank has been recognized for its commitment to building a creative
community with a 2012 New Hampshire Business Committee for the Arts
(NHBCA) Business in the Arts Award for the Lobby for the Arts program
as well as for its support of local artists and cultural organizations
throughout the Seacoast New Hampshire region.
