Flower Power

Here, my inspiration comes from my son Zach who draws amazing colorful mandalas among other things. This abstract tulip is 16x20 painted on stretched cotton. For sale in my Etsy shop.

When We Dance

Happy Tuesday! This is my newest painting. While sitting in my car at a traffic light in downtown Andover, I noticed a group of sweet little girls in their pale pink leotards and tights getting dropped off at the local ballet studio. Some of them were clearly not happy about going. You can figure it out from there.

Something About Andover/SOLD

"Adoption" This painting has been on exhibit at The Illuminations Cancer Center at Mass General Hospital. Today it sold. This painting, in a way, is some what of a family portrait. It is hard to part with certain paintings but it's going to a good home. This is one of the largest paintings I have done. 24x36.

Beacon Hill

The first Sunday of June is the Beacon Hill Art Walk. This will be my eighth year exhibiting at this unique and wonderful outdoor fine art show.

The people of Beacon hill graciously allow artist to display their work for one day within the charming gardens, streets and alley ways. It's worth checking out June 6th from 12 to 6 pm.

This painting is 16x20 done with acrylic paints on stretched cotton.

Painting for Nancy

This is a commission piece I just finished for a client in Lexington , MA. I enjoyed incorporating her favorite Saint, shown on the pillow, her longing for happy times in California and her kitty, and her pet pig! Oh and she was a punk rocker in the 80's!

This painting was 16x20 done on stretched cotton and framed with a beautiful burnished gold plein air frame.

Hi Everyone,

Hello Out There.

I can't remember where, but I came across an image of this girl under her umbrella. I knew it would work into a painting at some point. Then this past weekend a conservation came up at dinner with one of my sisters about our 30 something nieces and nephews, and how young people are getting married later in life.

BTW the Jewelry store in the background is Dorfmans on Newbury Street in Boston.

This painting is 11x14 done with acrylics on stretched cotton. It is for sale in my Etsy shop.
