Fall and Winter 2024-2025

Tablescapes

I am grateful to live in a place with fertile soil near an ocean full of fish. These paintings honor the abundance of food in my life and in our country. I do not take it for granted.

Snakes of Maine

I am afraid of snakes, but I don’t want to be afraid of anything, so I decided the best way to start facing my fear would be to paint them. Based on a recent encounter with a DeKay’s brown snake, I think it’s starting to work.

Summer 2022

Portland, Maine series

After the huge life change of moving from Chicago, IL to Portland, Maine in the summer of 2022, I jumped back in to making art with a series of paintings about what I saw and liked around me, sort of a visual diary. All paintings are acrylic and are either on paper or on canvas. Painted in 2022.

2021

Flowers in Vases Series

Acrylics on vintage embroidered fabrics sewn together and stretched over canvas. Each painting in this series also has a potato print either in the background or on the surface the vase is on. Potato prints were one of the first kinds of mark making I did as a kid at our kitchen table when I was growing up. I wanted to have that element of quickness and joy in each of these paintings.
