Artist Statement
Growing up in Brockton, Massachusetts it was during my high school years where I first experienced painting in a studio. I was instantly drawn to the light of the room and the echo of the space.  Finding an easel, setting up my brushes, palette, and building the canvas that would hold my creation felt like home.  I learned from this point on how very important painting was, as a part of me. No matter where life brought me, from cities to coastlines I always had a studio space where I could create.  Within that space, amongst the easel and brushes, were objects that had meaning to me, art books, artwork, and another piece of driftwood. Of course a chair for a cat or myself, and music playing in the background.  If these four walls could talk, they would tell a tale of trials and tribulations that any artist could relate to.  The coast, in all its everchanging beauty feeds my soul. For me, its a place you never leave the same as you arrived. It resinates, inspries and heals. It truly is a gift, and a place I find inspiration as an artist. 
 
Thank you for being a part of my creative journey.
